Whenever I put my computer to sleep it shuts the monitor off, but my computer keeps running. I recently did a reinstall on account of a mobo and CPU upgrade, I didn't have this problem before my upgrade. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, I was before my recent upgrade as well. Hibernate works fine it just takes longer to resume my session.
