Did you contact Keyspan and see if there is a firmware update for the 
card?  Also, did you trash all the com.apple.PowerManagement.* files on 
your machine, then clear the PRAM (startup with OPT-CMD-P-R held down 
until the beep)?  Sometimes the settings get funky and cause issues - i 
had that happen with the AGP and an iMac - this fixed them.

Lastly is your PRAM battery dead?  Another source of never ceasing 
wonders...
