Asus P8Z68-v lx don't know which bios version, the one it shipped with. I do not do bios updates, I'm too chicken to tempt it. It's a year old build this month I think. Problem just started in the last 2 months, partly why I'm planning on the next nvidia update too. Thanks for the hibernation command

I thought I was having RAM issues recently. I haven't been on my gamer much lately, but anytime I have come back to it after a day or 2 of idle time, it will have either Blue Screened or the monitor will have woken up, but everything is froze. No Keyboard or mouse. Reset or cold boot is the only resolve. I have searched all afternoon,(it's raining..no yard work) trying to find a lead. So far while I was reading, I ran Memtest for 2 full passes, and it says its ok. In my research I found some "old" threads blaming power management. I have ran the same scheme since I built this rig a year ago. But anyway, I went ahead and made changes. I have always just had the monitor turn off after 20 or 30 minutes, don't use hibernate or sleep, but today I did find this hybrid sleep, so I disabled it too. I also disabled turning USB devices off, and went through device manage and made sure mouse was set to wake computer as well as turning keybord on to wake computer, and made sure both were not to be put to sleep. As of now, the olny thing going to sleep is the monitor. I am going to play a little while and then let it set to see how it responds. I still plan on doing a scandisk, and have already done malware scan. Have even debated a full format and reinstall, but gotta get a new external first, the old one is getting jittery and dont want to trust it with important stuff. If there is some more ideas, love to hear em. Waiting on the official release of the Nvidia driver for the newest one, I am running release 314.07, figuered Id just skip 314.22 since the beta for the next one is already 2 weeks old, it should be ready shortly. Thanks in advance for some input.

is there anything else that doesn't work on the instrument panel? check all fuses, sometimes they feel the need to put more than one fuse in line for stuff. I found this out when I tried to pull mine for the airbag, it killed the entire dash cluster, and dome light was also tied in with speedometer and such. crazy combo's and double fused, from the factory manual. mine wasn't on a lumina, but possiblity is there.

My favorite one is

I run my smoker all year round. it's good for the soul

SSHHH, don't tell nobody, but i look at pinterest a lot. There a lot of great ideas on there, even for guy stuff. and thanks again for all the input from everyone. Like I've said, I have never been health conscious, but I'll do what I must for the sake of my wife. lucky for us, we do like lots of vegetables, so that part is easy. I will try some of the meat ideas, and I do like to start cooking from room temp whenever possible.

Thank you both for the replies. I will try the lean cuts in the marinade. I have rarely done lean beef, but will give it a go. As far as fast food, and junk food, that's a rarity for us anyway. We cut that stuff out when we moved outside city limits, now it's just once in a great while, and even then it's usually subway instead of burgers, lol. and her doc said the same thing about nothing white, and told us to change all possible things to whole grain. and we bought pears and oranges last night instead of junk snacks. Thanks for the help

Mercy has been put on a heart healthy diet now. We waitied two weeks for test result on her heart, and finally got them yesterday. As most of you know and understand, the way I cook, is not exactly heart friendly. I need some new ideas, stuff that includes chicken for the most part, cause "lean" beef, just aint got it. We have had beer braised chicken salad last night, and noodle salad tonight with the same beer braised chicken, and lots of vegetables. I have not put any salt on the chicken, only sage, oregano, parsley, basil, and black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. trying to stay away from anything with salt. bought a bunch of chicken tonight at the grocery store. not to make it sound bad, but , some of you old timers, and even the younger ones, I need some help with hearth healthy meals. keep in mind that I grill/smoke A LOT!! which I know can be better as far as the grill part goes, smoking tends to need fat. help an Idiot out, I gotta take care of my baby.

Quickest way to look around would be just grab a live cd like puppy linux or something, it's great for that kind of thing.

good luck

thanks, i just went through uninstalling it on 3 machines, now just 3 more to go, lol

Hxtr would be proud of me, I stayed away from the iphone, and got the droid razr maxx hd last week, love it so far, got 4 full days out of the first charge.

does it work with other cables, like DVI or VGA?

Happy Resurrection Sunday

Congrats

it should have kept everything, because doing this way it would not have created a new profile. you may have something else going on.
