Just installed vista hangs if it remains unused to long, how can I solve this

I had to replace a hard drive that crashed with a new one.  So I used the dell reboot disk and all is well.  I did all the updates and loaded all my old stuff and all the drivers for the computer as well. Everything is great, but if I put the computer in standby mode, it will get a striped vertically bunch of lines on the desktop and there is no access to anything at this point.

I have to press start to stop computer button so I can restart.  Had no chance to do all the things I can think.  I can restore because it's a brand new hard drive.

I; m thinking it of a vista issue and may just try to re - install vista on again once.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.  I even tried the fix program that Microsoft is free and it found no problem.

Thank you
