    Computer Restarts on Sleep/Hibernate


    Everytime I put my computer to sleep or hibernate and wake it up, the computer restarts. How can I figure out which driver is causing this?

    Hi Shrutishah Welcome to SF,

    One way to find is to check the Event viewer
    Start > Eventvwr > Application
    Check for Errors

    Hope that helps

    Make sure Wake-on-LAN is disabled in the BIOS (also disable WoWLAN if you're on a newer PC).

    This is an older article but it may point you in the right direction: Troubleshooting Windows Shutdown Problems

    There's a Microsoft Answers thread about this as well - you might try asking there too: Windows 7 computer restarts automatically after shutdown

    Good luck, let us know if you get anywhere with this...
