I've notice that when I put my s900 to sleep lately, it behaves differently
when awakened by the space bar.  It (and my ole c600) used to come back with
the open windows having files displayed.  I didn't experience this when I
got the unit.  Now, when it wakes up, all open windows and icons are blank
white and remain this way for about 8 secs.  My desktop also appears not
calibrated but eventually corrects itself.  It also sounds like one of my
drives dismounts (You can hear the ddd ddd ddd).  But it doesn't seem to
actually dismount.  when I try accessing each drive as soon as possible
after awakening, that doesn't help ID which drive is making the ddd noise.

Both of these behaviors are relatively new and I don't really have an idea
what I could have done to cause it.  As for the white windows, it's kinda
like the video remains asleep for a while longer after the cpu is woken up.
So far it hasn't caused any serious problems, but the one drive dismounting
does concern me.  I've got my hard disk set to 'never' go to sleep and all
timers off.  No scheduled shutdowns either nor am I presently using a screen
saver.  OS 8.6  All else seems fine.

 Anybody experiencing similar behavior or know a fix?  Ideas?

Dave
