    I've got the same card & situation if I have to 'restart' (for all these MS updates crud) but the problem goes away when I (normal method) 'hibernate':

    Shutdowns using the 'hibernate' method gives several benefits: It's a near zero power state; all 'startup' folder items are already loaded, Windows background services are already running, and all open work moves to the hard drive, giving really fast start-ups.

    And if power is lost (storms, etc.) the document or picture you were working on won't be lost like it would be in 'Standby' mode, and the system will resume just where you left it.
