bios update

The problem I am having is the system will go into S3 sleep but it will not come back up. It reboots the system upon wake up and I get a (How do you want Windows to start?" window. S1 sleep seems to work fine. I have adjusted the network card power management and set all the power management...

My apologies if this has been posted elsewhere; if so, I hope someone will point me in the direction of the current thread. Since upgrading from Vista HP, I'm getting "consider replacing your battery" and "There is a problem with your battery, so your computer might shut down suddenly" messages...

I performed a new 32-bit install of Windows 7. For some reason, the monitor shuts off when windows starts. I found that after Windows boots, if I hit the "sleep" button on my keyboard, allow the computer to sleep, then wake the computer, the monitor turns on and everything is fine. Why would...

I have a HP Pavilion (DV3-1124CA) laptop. After I did a fresh install the sound stops working after I resume from sleep mode. I have to restart the computer for sound to work again. I have the latest sound drivers and did the bios update but it didn't resolve the problem.

I've been running this mobo since the first RC came out. No issues with card or anything. I've been running a valid Windows 7 64 Bit Ultimate RTM installation for almost 2 weeks now, no issues. It first happened this morning when I opened up my PC from sleep mode and noticed i had no network...

Here's the skinny: I downloaded the RC over the summer to try it out, alongside linux mint. I like it so much that I've decided to abandon the linux distro for now and let Windows 7 take over my whole hard drive. The one thing remaining before falling in love is the lack of standby mode. The...

I am attemtpting to install the win 64bit 7 RC on a brand new build. I am using a USB stick as my install media. The install boots, although it takes a VERY long time to get from when windows begins to load the setup files to the place where I have issues (about 15 - 20 minutes). Where the...

After trying every possible driver with "Load driver" option without success, seeing atleast 3 BSOD's (error 0x0000007b) and being in a general bad mood i finally made it into Windows 7. What i did was the folowing: 1.) i flashed the bios to the latest version (used a rather old one before...

I've looked on the forums but can't seem to find an answer to this. I finally got Windows 7 installed (took forever, thought it wasn't working, but left it for an afternoon and it eventually finished installing), but now I can't boot with my DVD burner connected. I just get the "Starting...
