sleep mode

when my computer goes into sleep mode, it wont come back...
i have to turn off the computer& restart it.
it says a driver is missing -NIVIDA GeForce. I guess
I dont know what that is or where to find it to
either uninstall it or update it...i cant find it in the
device manager...not when i type it in to search for
it...i guess im stumped as to what to do..
thanks for any help
