    Computer Sleep Issue


    Hey guys, I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Most of the times after I resume from sleep, it's fine. Though every now and then I notice that when I try to wake my laptop up, the screen remains black and I can't do anything but a hard restart. Can anyone help me out with this please?

    Thanks!

    Have you updated the drivers for your Graphics Card lately?

    Update all your drivers using the guide in my sig, and use driver sweeper when you reinstall graphics card drivers.

    It can be a computer bios problem - update to the latest if any
    Btw, overclocking can be a problem too
