Crashes in Sleep mode Hey guys, My computer went dead so I had to format and reinstall windows 7 ultimate 32 bit. Everything is working fine when i actually use the computer. But there is an issue when i put it to sleep mode. The computer always successfully enters sleep mode, but it has issues starting back up after sleep mode. When i put the computer to sleep, i close the lid, and when i open it back up, it should turn on windows again.
What is happening, is that when I do open the lid, instead of returning to windows, it goes through the boot process, then says that windows didnt shut down properly and asks me to "start windows normally" or boot into safe mode. I dont want this to keep happening, what do i do? | My System Specs |

Hmm... If that did not work, and it's already disabled, give this hot-fix from Microsoft a try: Help and Support

 it didn't work either. let me provide you with more details. So, when i do close the lid/put it to sleep, my computer does successfully sleep. But it doesn't do it for extended periods of time. Like if i open it soon after i put it to sleep, it will work fine, what i noticed is that the issue only occurs if i put it to sleep for extended periods of time... I dont understand why this is happening. Is there some shut down/hibernate setting or something that is interfering?
Would reseating the memory help? AHHH!

have you tried hitting a keyboard key to wake it up from sleep?
Also the first post, after reading carefully with your addtional information, I wonder if you disconnect the power right after you close the lid? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Pugh Technologies OS W7 Professional x64 CPU AMD Athlon II X3 445 Rana 3.10 GHz Motherboard MSI 870A-G54 Memory PNY XLR DDR3 1600 4x2GB Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 (fermi) 1GB GDDR5 Sound Card Realtek ALC892 onboard Monitor(s) Displays ASUS VE205t, Viewsonic VX2035WM Screen Resolution 1600x900, 1600x1050 Keyboard Logitec 55 Mouse Razer Deathadder PSU Antec EarthWatts EA650 650W Case ThermalTake Armor A90 Mid Tower Cooling 3x 120mm in, 1x 120mm & 200mm out, self built hydro-cooler Hard Drives 977GB Hitachi Hitachi HDS721010CLA332

I dont disconnect the power when i put it to sleep, this problem occurs when it is plugged in and also when it isn't. Ill try the sleep button when i get the chance next and i will update this thread. Any other ideas? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Lenovo u460 OS Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit |

I have the same issue with my computer and the only thing i could do was to disable sleep mode as the screen is the big consumer of a computer you can simulate a sleep mode by going :
right click on destop -> custom -> screensaver
here you can find a tick box to ask password when you come back .
I hope your computer isn't a laptop | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Asus OS 7 64bit home premium Crashes in Sleep mode problems? All times are GMT -5. The time now is 08:44 AM. | |
