The original release of Vista suffered from the same problem. When
Vista SP1 was released the problem was fixed for almost all the
machines.
 
In order for VirtualRPC to re-start after the hibernate/Sleep Windows
needs  to be able to restore all memory to the state before the  event.
 
If the graphics card driver fails to do this then VirtualRPC won't
be able to continue as (from VirtualRPC's standpoint) a great
chunk of memory that it's been allocated has vanished.
