    Crashes Entering Sleep


    I have been having this problem for a while -- before I got the SSD (had a WD Velociraptor before) -- essentially, the system goes into sleep, whether I tell it to, or it does automatically, and never turns off. The screen goes black, and there is no HD activity, but the fans/lights/etc stay on.

    Sometimes, however, the computer does go into sleep (and recover from it) successfully, but I haven't been able to figure out why it works when it does. It always seems to work after a clean install, but again, there's no reason I can discern for why it starts to malfunction.

    Any ideas what might be causing this?


    In the event there's a BSOD I can't see because the screen turns off, I attached the dump/perfmon files.

    Is Windows 7 . . .
    - x86 (32-bit) or x64 ? x64
    - the original installed OS on the system? it's a home-built PC, so no
    - an OEM or full retail version? from MSDN-AA

    - What is the age of system (hardware)? a bit over two years
    - What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) less than a month

    Single uploaded minidump caused by hardware read here what it means and what to try. Your .dmp file shows a stop error of 0x124 which is a general hardware error .. A "stop 0x124" is fundamentally different to many other types of bluescreens because it stems from a hardware complaint. Stop 0x124 minidumps contain very little practical information, and it is therefore necessary to approach the problem as a case of hardware in an unknown state of distress. You can read more on this error and what to try here... Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try

    Thanks

    Hi Ken,

    Unfortunately, the dump file you looked at is from much earlier -- that was caused by overclocking too much for the hardware, if I remember correctly. Any idea what could be causing the sleep problems?

    Thanks again--
