trouble after monitor powers off

I have my display to turn off in one hour. When I move the mouse to wake it,
a blank screen comes up, showing only the mouse (and i can move it). I cant
do anything until my sreen saver comes on, and then I move my mouse to wake
the screen saver, and it goes back to normal. Is there a way to stop thanks
blank screen, and go back to my desktop when I wake the display?
thanks.

Sorry, I forgot..
i'm running Windows Vista RC1 Build 5600

I've seen similar behavior in Vista RTM. In my case, I had to set the Power
settings to never turn off the monitor.

So.. is there a fix to it, or a bug that cant be fixed?

It's just my opinion, but I'd guess there will be at least one fix issued for
all the sleep/hibernate issues people are (and will be soon) seeing.
