sleep mode

Where do I begin... This recently started happening, I don't know when but I think it was yesterday or the day before, prior to this I've never even seen Windows go into "Resuming Windows", it would just wake up from it's sleeps. But now it seems that every single time I put it to sleep it...

After a time in Hibernate mode, my computer "wake up" automatically. Someone know what are causing this? Microsoft said it would be outdated drivers. But it is not. My drivers are all installed and updated. I've been in the "Device Manager" to see which devices could be making the computer to...

I just had someone build my computer with a new SSD and I'm getting random BSODs during use. Any help would be appreciated. I'm an IT guy but I've never taken the time to learn how to read dmp files :( The only other problem I"ve noticed with this new build is that sometimes, when I hit the...

Recently Windows shuts down when idle after the pre set sleep interval expires. When I set my display to blank after 15 min and my PC to sleep after 20 min my PC will shut down rather than go to sleep as it is suppose to. I have extended the sleep interval to an hour to avoid shutdown. I...

Hi, All, I have an all in one Samsung Intel Core i5-3470T 2.9GHz with 6GB Ram. The computer boots up fast (about 20 seconds) but very slow waking up from sleep. Also slow switching users. After slow waking up and log in usually it's quite slow for a minute or two after which it returns to...

Hi All, So I've been having a strange problem with my Toshiba Satellite laptop lately, running Windows 8.1. Been having random BSODs, usually with a DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE message. I took a look at the dump files using BlueScreenView, and in almost every occurrence, it flags the...

The hibernation attempt in my MAC book Air running Windows 7 with SP1, by pressing the power button gently, works ok for 70% time and puts PC into hibernation. But on 30% occasions, only screen goes off, but computer remains ON with my being able to change caps lock on and off. This forces me to...

This is the first time this Blue Screen has happened to me and it happened in maybe an odd way. The day it happened which was Dec 15, 2014 my laptop was working fine all day. I left my laptop as i normally do on sleep on my bed. I came home to find my laptop off and have the startup crash and...

So Windows forced me to update to Windows 8.1, which I didn't want but still. They don't care, they forced the update. Which means my laptop reboots way slower, but I'll deal with that. Perhaps W8.1 is better at several area's. Anyways, I got a problem with sleep and hibernate mode. I can enter...

Hi I thought that my sound issue had gone away. But I stopped computing for a while and had lunch. When I came back, my computer had gone to sleep and when I woke it up, no sound. I started thinking about it and it may be that this is what has been happening in the past. I often go away from...

I have recently (about 4 weeks ago) purchased an Asus R510J, a laptop with pre-installed Windows 8.1. It was running rather smoothly apart from some painful differences I notice coming from Windows 7. The one issue I started to notice however, was that when waking it up in the morning it would...

Symptom: I cannot toggle the sleep mode from either my keyboard shortcut or in the menu of windows 8. Both options, shutdown and restart, work perfectly fine but sleep won't work. Here is what happens when I toggle sleep: My screen shuts down but the fans still are blowing. Whenever I move my...

Hello! I've been troubleshooting this issue for months now and it is really frustrating. My issue is every time my computer goes to sleep/is shut down, when I start it back up, the computer works normally for about 7-10mins or so, and then BSODs. Once I reboot from the BSOD, my computer runs...
