Sleep, Hibernate buggy

@/2ct!< · Nov 16, 2009, 08:33 PM

I've been trying to use hibernate or sleep with my desktop, but there is usually an error when I wake it back up. Either the video card has some trouble until windows wakes it back up or my usb devices stop properly functioning. Any idea about the cause? Does it work for everyone else?

What mode is your computer set up for power management in the bios?

I've noticed problems with my setup using S1 or whatever it is. I switched to S3 and notice less problems and faster wakeups.

Try to update the motherboard BIOS, chipset and video card drivers to the latest versions.

Do you mean something like having the screen turn on and being able to move cursor with the mouse, but not being able to click anything or do anything with a keyboard for some time? Because that happens to me sometimes, even when I don't use sleep and hibernate and only set the monitor to turn off after x minutes. I've seen the issue reported on some forums without solution. I also haven't experienced it on Vista during a short period I used it with this same system. A relatively recent Windows Update seems to have much reduced the frequency of this happening.

The Bios was already on S3, maybe ill try s1. The main repeatable issue seems to be that the display driver stops working and windows eventually recovers it after my fan whips into very high speed mode for a minute.

Well, if S1 Doesnt fix the issue, I'd try a bios update or graphics driver update. (since it seems to be related to your graphics card as well)
