Windows 7 Resume from Hibernation stops with 0x9A

[Blutarsky]

On a brand new, freshly installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 i get the following error when resuming from Hibernate:
"Your computer can't come out of hibernation. Status 0xc000009a"

No other info, no reference to any file such as hyberfil.sys.....

I have tried to "powercfg -h on/off", reboot defrag and reactivate hibernation, however the problem is still there.....what can i try?

Did you try the -energy switch for powercfg? After it finishes, copy the report to the desktop to read it. Prior to running the evaluation, close down all other programs/utilities you can.

You will probably see some USB comments, but maybe something more involved will show up. Make note of the approved sleep states.

Does it go in and out of sleep OK?

 

[davehc]

Is it a Laptop or Stationary? older, and some newer, stationaries, do not have this feature.

Hibernation, as you know, is normally only useful to Laptop users, who walk away from the machione and forget it. On a stationary it is a total pain and, apart from wasting disk space, has no practical use. However.

Enter a command prompt and type powercfg -availablesleepstates and see what results you getfirst.
If hibernation is available to you, first use disk cleanup and then defragmentation to ensure you have no third party programs hanginng in and stopping your computer from hibernating.
Afterwards, you can go into the Control panel -Power Options. Scroll down through your chosen plan and ensure that you have the hibernate option available, and selected.

Ok. Try this, which might be the problem.
Control Panel (icon View!) -Power Options.
Select your marked power Plan. (default is "balanced") - Change plan settings
Change Advanced Power settings
Scroll down to USB settings and make sure you have the "USB selective suspend setting" enabled.
Ok and then on the next returned window "save"

Try the hibernation now.

 

[Blutarsky]

Was already on that setting....
Guys, it is a freshly installed system... didn't touch anything..... could it be some settings in the BIOS?

 

[davehc]

I'm getting a bit short on ideas, but, fwiw, try this.
Disable Hibernation again, and delete the hiberfil.sys file (in the root)and restart the machine. Now apply disk Cleanup and defrag the drive and , once again, restart . Re-enable hibernation, (the hiberfil.sys file will be recreated after a yet another reboot).

 

[Blutarsky]

I'll try thanks a lot!

 

[Blutarsky]

I believe it's a UEFI problem..... DELL sucks guys, sorry for being rude..... I'll go for another test and let you know.... thanks for helping

 

[davehc]

Woops. You have UEFI!
There are quite a few posts regarding hibernation with it. looks like you may be out of luck. I am sorry. But post back if you do find an answer.

FWIW. My son is a Dell installation and repair engineer. I've just Emailed him for an answer.

OK. Later. Got this straight back from my son. I'm copying it verbatim, It is not a feature I understand, so See if it makes sense to you!!!!!

"Yes, one big thing that must be "abled" in the BIOS, is "power saving state (S4)". This must be activated, otherwise it won't switch power to all units when needed, and then a fault BSOD will pop up. This is usually a reference to the hdd, because it is not ready.
The big issue with UEFI and S4 state, is the fact that when you hibernate, the OS writes to flash memory, and then the hdd, of the exact progress, so it knows what to do when it gets woken up again. If S4 is not chosen, the exact progress is NOT written, and then windows burps and crashes.

Love Mike

P.S. If S4 is up and running, then it could be a matter of an win update which has corrupted the hibernate mode. Which would probably lead to a re-install.....urk!"

Even Later.
Now my son has sent me this large MS doc which may help??? (Attached)

In addition to the previous, I see some things that look a little strange. Possibly caused by the situation being discussed, or vice versa.

The statement about Disabling ASPM seems to be related to a device on your system. I notice the Wireless card is not set to sleep. Have you looked in Device Manager-Properties for Network Adapter and made sure the options under the power management tab will allow the device to be controlled?

It is hard to tell what messages might have been generated by the ASPM being shut down.

Do you have any external devices connected, if so you might remove them.

Do you have some network activity that runs such as video feed or something the Network Adapter needs to be awake for?

You might try changing power profiles and then changing back.

I am not a Dell expert, so davehc might have the best information, or you might check with Dell, especially if it is a new laptop. Their support is very good, or at least it was..

 

[Blutarsky]

DAVE!!!!! You need a MONUMENT!!!!
In the while I have switched back to BIOS Legacy mode because DELL support couldn't help me to find a solution to a missing sound card booting under UEFI. As a result now hibernation works.

I have tried to find some literature out there but UEFI seems to be at an early stage, now. However I'd appreciate if you could ask your son why the sound card was missing under UEFI, while visible and fully functional in Legacy mode. Very interesting also if you could ask him why boot time under UEFI or Legacy mode is on par. But this may be content for another topic....

Thanks and HUGS!!!

 

[davehc]

Thats great news! I am happy for you. I confess to frustration for a time there! My son is on tour at the moment (Fixing Broken Dells -LOL) He is coming straight over for a barbecue on Saturday, so we,ll put our heads together and see if we can make one!
I'll either post back in this thread or PM you.

 

[Blutarsky]

I love your family!

 

[davehc]

Thanyou. We are blessed. (Well, I am at least!) Of thee children and one "extra" married to my daughter, Two are in intensive IT work and one is in repair work. Lots of stuff (all legally acquired) comes my way, and a vast amount of knowledge of course. I was luck enough to be drawn out of the bundle for Beta testing in the first Vista releases, and subsequently Windows 7, so we bore evreyone else around the dinner table talking about computers!!

Ps. Now with 5 grandchildren. All are competent with computer use. The youngest, 7 years old, leaves me at the starting post when we play competitive computer games. Oh well.

 

[Blutarsky]

Looks like a lovely family.
My 2 children 11/12 years old are on the right way too.
As for your dinner talks, I can understand perfectly: Our friends now ask if the "ITC group" is invited to dinner, if so they decline invitation!

 

[davehc]

No luck on this one. My son states that the technology is only in use by a couple of other producers (gateway is apparently one). They are all having minor bugs, particularly with sound cards.. His applied solution, during his rounds, is to go back to the bios. The more drastic solution is, during the initial install, select the bios and not UEFI.

 

[Blutarsky]

Yes, that's what I did, when I have realized that the technical support couldn't help...

Dear Dave

I have the same issue with it,

Can I get the MS dos to see ?

Thanks a lt.
