OK,
There are two bugs here
1) XBMC crashes on resume
2) If XBMC crashes or is closed in an impropper way while dimmed, the screen will stay dimmed.
Raising these tickets now.

I was never able to reproduce 1) on my XP. Surely the gui was blurred after resume (which I still can't fix as of yet) but XBMC still worked for me.
Concerning 2) what shall we do if XBMC is crashed? If you speak about the screensaver dimming we do this by applying a gamma ramp which needs to be reversed in order to restore the previous state. If XBMC has crashed we can't do so. So its more important to find the reason for the crash or what ever you mean with an improper close.

I join this thread instead of opening a new one cause it seems appropriate.
I have just discovered that xbmc is some way the reason why on my pc I need to press the power button 2 times before it could wake from S3.
I don't turn off the pc, just send it in s3 standby with xbmc still running and this is what happens when I go for resume it:
- I press the power button. Windows resuming screen appears on the display exactly the way it should
- After about 10 seconds the pc goes back into the s3 standby
- I press again the power button and the pc correctly resume in a couple of seconds.
I never figured what the problem was until I tried closing xbmc before going into standby mode. So I discovered that if xbmc is not running, the resume works well at first shot.

i have been experiencing similar crashing/lack of display output when return from hibernate for a while now.
after power button to resume, if i get a blank screen, i have to hit reset button on pc to reboot. powerbutton again seems to put the pc to sleep, however the pc will resume again on next button press with blank screen output.
