This is a round up of processes, services and features that I have turned off. I have tested these for months under Windows 7. My system is faster and stable and has far less overhead than the day I installed Windows 7. My boot time as recorded by BootRacer is down to 17...

Earlier this month, I bought an Asus G60V with Windows 7. At first, it was working great with no issues. Soon after multiple updates, every time the computer sleeps/hibernates/restarts, the wireless network adapter disables itself. I've done some research and have tried these fixes:

My computer wakes every night at around 4am. In the event viewer, the reason is "S4 Doze to Hibernation". I cannot figure out how to force the computer to stay in sleep mode. I do, however, want the computer to allow hibernation on battery, so disabling hibernational all together won't work.

Hell Everyone,
I am using Windows 7 Professional. It seems very stable, except when XP mode is hibernating. I have found at such times that minimized files will not maximize at times; in other words, the taskbar becomes buggy. At first I thought Windows 7 was unstable, but this problem does not...
Was wondering if anyone can help me.
I use sleep and hibernation a lot but I've been finding that my system seems to power on by itself after I go to bed. Can't tell when it happens, though and was wondering if anybody has had the same problem or know the cause?
Ok, so I have ACPI 2.0 installed, and I have all the settings in the "Power Options" that allow a timed hibernate, disabled. However, when I leave the PC on it will hybrid sleep after a few hours and then when I try to resume, it instantly turns on (like its supposed to) but then, after about a...
I have a Toshiba F40 Qosmio laptop. I recently upgraded to Windows 7 last week. The install went smoothly and I encountered no problems.
However, last night I accidentally set my computer to go to hibernation instead of shut down normally. It did so. I came back from getting some water and I...
Recently I installed windows7 64bit home edition on my desktop pc, at night before I go to bed I like to place the PC into hibernation mode, however ever since I installed the new windows the PC will hibernate but about 15-20 mins later the computer just restarts itself. Is this a known bug? Or...
I've been using windows 7 for quite some time now. I had my time with both the beta and the RC1. I have installed the retail Windows 7 Home Premium.
It regularly 'drops' my internet connection, and almost always does when coming out of standy/sleep or hibernation. I'll be downloading...
Hi! I had two partitions, one with XP Pro and another with Vista Home Premium. I then upgraded to Windows 7 on the Vista partition. Now I'm trying to delete the XP partition but I can't because I receive a message that states "delete is not allowed on the current boot, system, pagefile...
I don't know if I should post this in any other forum, so here goes.
I am having a problem with Win7 not coming back from sleep mode.
The machine goes to sleep without a poblem.
When I move my mouse it starts waking up and then just powers off. I have to hit the power button to turn it...
I have installed Win7 RTM on a second disk. I use a bootloader to boot to the second disk. The install goes really well.
After the install is finished and I am presented with the desktop for the first time. The Sleep (Hybrid Sleep) mode that is the default works fine. Windows goes to sleep...
