I have the same card, but I have never had the sleep problem.

A couple times while playing games (Halo, Age of Mythology) I have gotten
the dump routine message. I think it is a heat issue, since it doesn't
happen when I sit an additional fan on my cube while gaming.

For the record, in addition to the PL 1.4 GHz card, I have a GeForce2 MX
graphics card (no fan) and a Segate 120 GB 7200 RPM drive.

I unfortunately upgraded the CPU about 1 week after upgrading to panther,
so I have never known which (or both) is the culprit...
