Vista will not wake from sleep mode

I have Vista SP2, Intel Quad Core processor, 4 GB RAM, 64-bit. I have never been able to use "sleep" mode and am forced to restart the computer. Checked and unchecked parameters in Manager devices, power management, etc. Have not found a solution through the web, Tech Web sites or Microsoft Web sites. What I found is that it is an unsolved problem with Vista and all over the web with other users having the same problem. Hope I'm wrong. Help, please.

  • Monitor intermittently do not wake from sleep mode

    I have a new Pavilion 500 - 205t Windows 7 Desktop (two weeks).  Two days earlier, after the computer is in mode 'sleep', the computer would wake up, but the screen would not.  I contacted HP Support and they said not to put the computer in mode 'sleep', but to turn it off instead.  They said that the computer could accumulate a static charge which could prevent the monitor to wake up from sleep mode.  Their solution was to force a shutdown by pressing the power switch, unplug at the back of the Tower, by pressing the power switch for 20 seconds, plug everything back in and then turn on the computer.  The monitor worked correctly then wake up from sleep mode.  For the last two days, the computer would wake properly from sleep mode.  Today, the same thing happens again.  This time, I turned off the computer and then he turned back to (without unplugging everything) and the monitor worked correctly.

    Here's my question:

    Is it really a static problem? (It has been cold and dry here for several weeks and static is high)  Or I have a hardware problem or software that needs to be fixed?  Thank you for your time.

    I think I found the solution to this problem for my computer.  I changed the settings for sleep or sleep 'Hybrid' or 'Hibernate' is allowed.  Since then, I have not experienced the problem.  I also changed what does the power button, so that when I press the power button, the computer shuts down normally.  This prevents a "forced" shutdown if the problem happens again.

    Thanks again Bill, for your time.  I mark this problem is resolved.

  • Laptop Dell Studio 1555 w / Vista does not wake from sleep when the lid is open.

    I have a laptop Dell Studio 1555 with Vista Premium 64-bit. Until last night, the laptop would run mode standby when I closed the lid and woke up when I opened the cover later. Yesterday I was downloading photos from a Canon camera via USB. I close the lid when I did. When I went to open the cover later the laptop screen remained in black and white. The power button is lit, but the only way I can get to meet is to hold the power button until it turns off completely, and then restart the laptop. A difference when the lid is closed, I think the power button will blink and turn off slowly while he was really in sleep. He remains on all the time now when the lid is closed. I tried to go into power management and put the laptop from sliding when the lid is closed, but has not made a difference.

    Run the system restore and choose a restore point created just before the problem occurred. Steve Winograd, MS - MVP (Windows desktop experience)

  • T500 does not wake from sleep mode

    My T500 (2241-3XU with Win 7 64 bit Ultimate) has never been able to wake mode 'sleep', once the lid is closed. I have finally returned to the use of hibernation, but I was just wondering if there is a new patch that I'm not aware of. I tried to find info a few years back before hibernation. Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Try to install the latest version on it. 1.62 should collaborate with the T500 however.

  • my computer would not wake from sleep when the cover iclose & open again?

    When I close the lid on my computer & open it again, the computer does not wake up, it shows just a black screen!

    Hi George,.

    From the description of the problem, it seems that the computer would not wake from sleep when you close the lid and open it again. I understand the inconvenience.

    Let us, try to perform the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1: Run the troubleshooter of power

    Open the troubleshooter of power

    Method 3: Update Chipset drivers

    Download and install the latest version of drivers for chipset for the computer on the computer manufacturer site and check if you are faced with the same question.

    Method 4: Run the BIOS update

    I would say as you perform the update of the BIOS by contacting the manufacturer of the computer, check if it helps.

    Important: Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
