if you're having the same problem as myself and many others then your PC isnt going to sleep or standy or hibernat it SHUTS OFF completely.
randomly.. sometimes every couple of hours, sometimes every few minutes, it shuts down and i have to wait a minute or two or three before i can turn it back on.
when its plugged into the power i usually have the power light on but not in this case, when this happens the light is off, like the laptop is totaly dead.
this is quite annoying and i hope someone finds a solution quick. i have toshiba satellite x200-15k which runned fine on both XP and Vista.
im typing fast before it SHUTS DOWN again!!
I am having the same problem, it is not going to sleep or hibernation, it is shuting down completely. it is happening at random but i've noticed it also does it when i run the Windows experience index. Any ideas as this is starting to really piss me off
I have the exact same problem, It is not in the Power save Options, it is NOT in the SLEEP OR HIBERBATE options, the computer is NOT GOING TO SLEEP OR HIBERNATE.....plz read again....and then again if needed still. The Computer is having complete unexpected loss of power....as in when we come back and press our power buttons, it doesnt restore you to desktop, it boots up all from the start of bios and boot up screen, Ok so now that we are past the "They dont know about power saving option ( 4 Year Degree in Computer Technologies and Communications...I think I know about power save options and I am sure that if the guy who started this post is smart enough to verify the email required to post here, he knows about them as well ^^ ) ANyhow, my specs are below, same exact problem, maybe to much power draw from my vid card? PCI Express 2.0 meaning it is powered by the PCI Slot, but that does not mean it isnt drawing to much from it, also, Power Supply Temp, as a Safety STandard most are set to power off in the event of Over heating, what do you guys think?
I am having the same problem. I have checked all of my power options and everything. Even called the computer manufacturer(Dell) and they told me that it is a software issue. Hardware checked out fine. I can leave my computer on and come back to it and it will be completely turned off. I can also be using the computer and the screen will turn black and the computer shuts down. It do not go through the shut down process, it just goes blank as if it has completely lost power. Has anyone figured this out yet?
