Anyone got any ideas about getting a computer out of hibernation/sleep mode because my new pc wont get out of without a reset... im thinking something in the BIOS?
 
Check out the BIOS for any sleep settings. It's strange that it doesn't do this. You could also try searching for sleep-related issues with your motherboard.
 
I'm pretty sure pressing the power button on the case also works for me.

Maybe you are attempting to utilise an unsupported sleep mode? BIOS setting will be in power saving category. Something like S3?
 
getting out of, as in now the pc wont turn on?
best way i have found is power off, ram out, ram in, power on, back to windows and dont let it sleep/hibernate again.
 
If your on windows 7/vista, this Guide could be useful, it helped me.

Also, i enabled Legacy support for usb as i could not wake from sleep mode using my wireless keyboard and mouse, now all is good.

Hope this helps. :)
