    x64 BSOD after "sleep"


    First I used Win7 x86 RC1, and no problems with sleeps. Just moved on to Win7 RC1 x64, and sometime after "sleep" it shows the desktop very briefly, then BSOD. Not the same STOP code every time, but the error-name allmost everytime has the word KERNAL in it.
    As the STOP-code changes, how do I track this error? (I totally newbie to x64 OS)

    Have you checked the event viewer for any errors? Can you upload the minidump files anywhere so someone can have a look at them? Are you using native Win 7 drivers?

    Where do I find this minidump file?
    Yes all drivers are for Windows 7, but I have installed Daemon tools, Rivatuner (as monitoring and fan-profile, as it can't OC because of Windows 7 drivernatur) along with Kaspersky 8.0.0.181 beta (should be compatible with Windows 7 recording to Kaspersky)

    Minidumps are created in C:\Windows\minidump.

    Also, since this is sleep related, try updating your video drivers through Windows Update or from the video chipset manufacturer's website (ATI, nVidia, Intel, etc).

    I have tried all day to re-create the error, but every time I'm wakening the PC it works. I'll be back if/when the error reoccur

    I agree here. I put Windows 7 RC on a Dell Latitude D830 laptop. It would constantly crash when it came out of sleep mode. I would also see corrupted display with Aero. I went into the Device Manager and forced it to search for updated drivers for the 965GM chipset and it installed them. No more BSODs and display is perfect.

    there is a recent 965 driver, and it may help others

    Now I have a minidump file from a BSOD after waking up from "sleep mode", but I don't know where to upload it. Any ideas?
