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...

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...

Hi. 1) The problem: Until recenty, I had sound. One day, I put my computer into sleep mode overnight (as I've always done). The next day, I brought it out of sleep mode and... silence. I'd made no changes to my settings and hadn't installed anything on my computer between the two sessions...

Hi, Recently got a laptop, and freshly installed W8 on it, as well as taking out the HDD that came with it and putting in my 128GB M4 SSD that I used previously for my desktop (so knew it was working fine). However, I have noticed on a couple of occasions so far, if I close the lid to put the...

I'm continually getting the kernel_data_inpage_error BSOD at quite random times - during skype calls, bringing computer out of sleep mode, playing games - and I can no longer say it was a one-off kind of thing, but I'm not sure how to fix it, and found this forum hoping for some help. I ran the...

Exactly what the titles says. I started to notice a change with the clock every now and then. I finally concluded that the clock does not change during sleep, restart, or shutdown. My computer goes to sleep often, and when it wakes up from sleep, the time is the same as when it was prior to...
