Hmm. This is likely due to a different cause than PCI bus power
remaining on.
Perhaps it is related to how well the tv-out memory buffer's cells
retain charge (and therefore partial image) without power? Not much you
can do about that except wait it out. I hope the chipset registers
don't have a similar issue.
