Laptop Screen wont turn on

[Anomo]

My HP Pavillion 8510p works fine, it gets a bit slow once in a while, but it's not that bad. The real problem is when I put it in standby. Most times nothing goes wrong, but sometimes (and those few times are really annoying) the screen wont turn on. Sometimes I can put it back into standby, turn it on again and everything is ok. Other times I have to kill the laptop and turn it back on to make it work. It's not a screen issue. I'm sure of it because 6 moths ago I had to change the screen (it died on me, ty for warranty :P). It happened before the screen change and it has happened after the screen change.

So anyone know how to fix this?

PS: I use XP pro 32 bit.

How often are the "few times?"

If it's once every few weeks it could take years to figure out if any of the ideas from here work or not.

Standby & Hibernate issues can be associated with graphics driver.Do you have the latest posted on your models pages?

It happens 1-2 times a week, so yes it can take a while :P

I do believe that I have the latest version of my driver, but I will download it again and reinstall to make sure.
