Vista won't wake up from sleep ?

Snow-Munki · 18 Jun 2008 at 22:35

Hi,

Been trying to get my HTPC Vita 64bit machine to wake up from sleep. I t goes to sleep ok ( via the start menu option ).

Then when I press any key on the keyboard it turns on but nothing is displayed on the screen, and I have to unplug the machine and then turn it back on.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Is it overclocked at all? Mine will not resume when I have any overclocking.

I've had this problem before too, asrock board, intel chip/chipset, ati graphics. I had a similar problem with my old laptop and vista too. Solution is to just not use sleep mode

Not overclocked everything at stock ( i think ! )

AMD 4000 x2

I had a similar problems, sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn't. As said the solution is not to use Sleep

One would expect the issue to relate to the memory. Perhaps not storing the data correctly or losing something. Have you got hybid sleep enabled? This also stores the files on the HD so if the memory fails, it can use that. If you have cleared "Hibernation" files in a disk clean up, you will need to enter the command prompt to re-enable it. TBH I never actually use sleep mode as I do not trust it to resume with any kind of stability. My pc is on 24/7 any way.

My Vostro refuses to wake up from sleep.

thanks.. I'll have a play with hybrid sleep and hibernation tonight. No idea if hybrid sleep is enabled or not
