ThinkPad T60 8744 will not stay in mode 'sleep'.

I apologize if this question has already been addressed elsewhere in this forum; I looked at some length and any mention of it is found.

I had a problem recently with my ThinkPad T60 8744-5BU running Windows Vista Business SP1.  Whenever I put my laptop sleep (whether by closing the lid or using the combo Fn + F4), it will remain so for anywhere from 30 minutes.  At one point during the transport, the laptop comes out fashion 'sleep'.  It is very good and everything except that it is usually in one of these sleeves neoprene inside my bag Targus, which means that at the time when I get where I'm going, I could use it to make pancakes.

Because it always seems to happen while I'm away, I figured that maybe it was a problem with an Active Protection, but neutralizing him did not resolve the issue.

Has anyone run into this problem or heard of something similar?  Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Ben

Well, welcome to the forum,

  • Hard drives will not remain in mode 'sleep'

    For two weeks, something strange happens. My hard drives in sleep mode and out instantly. They will not remain in mode 'sleep'. Any hour of delay, I place, they will behave like this. So even if I place a time to sleep 1 minute, you will hear them go to sleep and instantly out every minute, without interruption. It's used to work perfectly before for months. I have not installed anything again (with the exception of Windows updates). I checked with performance monitor, if something is accessing the disks, but there is no drive activity whatsoever. I also tried to stop the process as much as possible, but that did not help either. The only thing I've changed three weeks ago was my graphics (Radeon 6850 to GTX580) but I'm not sure that the problem started then. Only two weeks ago, I noticed the issue. If anyone else has experienced something like this?

  • Windows will not remain in mode 'sleep'

    My guess is that there is a task is scheduled during the time that I put my computer into sleep mode.  When I say not to go in standby mode, it will often directly go into "locked" mode only.  Another problem I had is that there was a time where the computer would go to standby very well, but when I went to use the computer the next day, I would find the office running, meaning not in locked mode or "standby mode".  I have tasks scheduled for a few nights, but another thing I'm wondering is, when the task is complete, it's supposed to go naturally in mode 'sleep' if I allowed him to sleep when he is silent for a certain period of time, including when a task is completed, even if the task brought the computer out of sleep for the task.  Help!

  • Windows 8 will not wake up mode 'sleep'

    I have a Dell desktop with Windows 8 and he will wake up sleep mode, if it isn't being used for awhile but if left for a long time he goes to sleep and won't wake up. I tried to turn it back on

    • touch mouse
    • touch the power button / stop
    • using the windows key + C
    • no result except if I make a strong power down
    Now, he has started to download windows updates without installing
    The best that I have saved for the end... It will not cut down, it will only in power saving mode
    very frustrating... suggestions please?

    Was given this same problem and I fixed it.  Check to make sure that she is not actually wake up!  In my case was wake the computer itself, but the graphics card was not.  I could hear the processor fan back, hard disks turn upward, but nothing on my screen.  In my BIOS, there is an option to do not allow the built-in graphics adapter sleep.  It was called "RC6 make Standby" and I turned it off - fixed!

  • My hard drive will not close in mode 'sleep'

    My hard drive runs continuously when my iMac 2011 model is put into mode 'sleep' or expires in mode 'sleep'. I guess that's the drive I can hear something quietly spinning inside.and computer is a little warm. It started only in recent weeks. Before that, the computer has been completely silent and gave off no heat. the operating system is El Capitan.

    Hello, Blue Roses,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that you have a problem with the hard drive of your iMac running when your computer goes into mode 'sleep'. I know how it is important to make sure you slowed down your drive hard when you have to. I'll be more than happy to help you with this.

    You can activate the option "Put hard drives to sleep when possible" in preferences energy saver of your iMac by following this path: Apple menu > System Preferences > energy saver > put a check mark next to hard drives was able to sleep when possible. Once you have enabled this, test and see if you get the same result with the rotation of the hard drive.

    The following article contains more information on energy-saving preferences:

    Preferences of OS X El Capitan: energy saving

    If you still have a question after that, try to start your computer in safe mode and create a new user to see if you get the same result in both. This can help to identify the problem of the current user and the whole system. The following articles will help:

    OS X El Capitan: start in safe mode

    OS X El Capitan: set up users on your Mac.

    See you soon!

    Hello

    What do you use for security?

    If you are using an Internet Security Suite, it will have its own firewall and disables the default Windows Firewall.

    And you should have only one firewall to avoid problems related to the operating system.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    You have not installed SP1?

    If so, try a direct download of SP2.

I followed the steps to do a factory reset on it and successfully completed, but it still does the same thing. The printer itself works fine, it's just the tablet which is defective.
