Thanks.
Although I do have an Nvidia-based card it is not clear that this is
the cause of my problems. The link you provided states that upon
resume from hibernate the screen still stays black. However, in my
case I cannot even get my system to resume from hibernate by hitting a
key or moving the mouse. And I can only get it to resume based on
pressing the reset button (which I should NOT have to do).
I think I have other, more basic underlying issues with being unable
to get out of hibernate.
It is either related to my motherboard and some jumper or bios setting
that is needed or it is something else - what I do not yet know.
