Try having your PC entered sleep mode and see what happens when you want it
to come out of sleep. Major issue with a lot of nVidia users. More often
than not you will find your PC rebooting.

Basic functionality that they should have been able to fix by now. I can
live with slightly slower gaming, but I hate having to remember to shut down
my PC before I go to sleep.

Bob,

It's not Vista that has the problem but the motherboard drivers for some
mobos. I have 6gb installed and it works like a charm. Other modo's (I
think I've read about ASUS and some nVidia mobos) have a problem with
greater than 2gb of RAM under Vista.

Check for updated drivers for your motherboard.

SLI is only supported by nVidia on the 8800 series cards under Vista. 7 & 6
series should get SLI sometime around the end of March.
