Older gaming rig won't properly wake up from sleep

Intel i7 2700k, Intel Dp67bg MB, 32mb ram, 970 video card.

It wakes up from sleep, by turning on normally, then a few seconds later the displays go blank and the computer is non responsive. I don't think it is a video card issue, as the fans inside are "off" along with the hard drive light and other clues. Mouse/Keys remain illuminated as if it were on, but they do nothing. The DVD drive will open, but the computer won't respond to the disc or any front buttons and I must shut it down by the power supply.

Device manager is set to allow mouse/keyboard to wake it.

Setting it to never sleep but to shut off the monitors after 5 mins of non use results in the same thing.

Otherwise, no issues. I've configured it to stay on all the time.

BIOS issues?

Thoughts?

Thanks!
