• May not wake my computer from sleep mode

  Hello!

  My computer wake from sleep very well. I stopped to do for awhile; then when I went to do it again, it wouldn't work. I don't know if this problem started; Therefore, I can't really do a restore on any given day.

  When I move the mouse or press the space bar, the computer seems to wake up from sleep - everything seems to work fine (fans, lights, etc...) -only the screen goes black and says he'll sleep because there is no entry for the computer. I push the button to turn off the computer completely the computer. When it restarts and I check for any problem in the event viewer, I can't find anything that might have caused this to happen.

  Windows Vista SP1
  Compaq Presario desktop computer
  2 GB OF RAM

  Here are the things I've tried so far...
  * I am logged - in as administrator of the computer
  * Checked with HP for the BIOS update - I've already been updated later on their Web site.
  * Using various Vista Web site tutorials, I played a bit with Windows power management settings (hibernate, sleep, hybrid, etc...).
  * Look for updates of video card - I already have the updated version.
  * Changed my Avast AV to moy.
  * Uninstalled AVG completely
  * Performed SCANNOW several times the last two weeks - no issue reported
  * A tried to generate a system health report, but I am not able to - see another question that I posted today.

  I've seen suggestions on remove the BIOS battery or reset the BIOS to its default settings, but I did not feel brave enough to do all of this - not found reassuring advice that will not destroy my particular computer: o) I went into the BIOS to have a look at the power management settings , but there was something I could do with them - absolutely nothing on the standby or Hibernate mode or whatever it is.

  THANK YOU for any help! I really appreciate it!
  Sincerely,
  Jenny

  Sure!
  You should be able to go to the Intel website and look for your video chipset.
  From there on, download the appropriate driver. I would put it on my desk as you can delete it when you are finished.

  Once it is downloaded, you should be able to just double-click and install it.

  I'm guessing that you went into the Device Manager. Who will stop you if the drivers are the same version.
  The other way will overwrite the old driver.

  In the worst case, you will need to uninstall the old drivers first and then install a new one.

  Good luck, let us know how it goes. Matt Hudson

• Problem with Intel (r) C600/79 X series chipset PCI Express Root Port 3 - 1 d 14 wake my computer from sleep mode

  Hello

  (hope this is the right forum for this question)

  I asked on the forums so, called Microsoft and the company that made my computer and no one can give me an answer - I don't know what to do anymore.

  Whenever I put my computer to sleep (remotely or in the menu windows) it automatically wake up after a certain time (various from 5 seconds to 30 minutes) and he does it without doing me anything.

  So far I have tried:

  • BIOS upgrade
  • Updated many drivers
  • Out all my USB and stuff to see if that had nothing to do with it.
  • Anything that might wake my computer without getting so basically (mouse, keyboards, regular stuff etc.) disabled
  • Above all, I was googeling everything that is remotely close to the subject, I'm trying hard and again came away empty-handed.

  As I said in the topic I think that I discovered that the PCI 3 - ID14 express root port is the problem, but then again, what the h *, is that, and I can't for the life of figure me out how to disable.

  My configuration:

  • Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1
  • 2 monitors (BenQ and Acer)
  • Razer BlackWidow (keyboard)
  • Razer Imperator (mouse)
  • Logitech webcam
  • NVIDIA Geforce GTX 680
  • Intel Core i7-3820
  • Asus P9X79 (motherboard)

  

  Anyone has any ideas or have had similar problems? I'm so sick of what I think actually just reinstalling EVERYTHING, but that requires a lot of work because I have so many things I need to keep.

  Any help, either, is appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  Thanks for all your efforts, but the problem is now resolved.

  I downloaded manually all the network card drivers that had nothing to do with 'Realtek' or whatever it is. Then suddenly it worked. So I probably installed a correct driver, strange thing is that I update my network card in the past, but it does not solve the problem.

  I have a pavilion with Vista m9457c.  Recently, it developed a problem in which the mouse or the keyboard you wake the computer from sleep mode more.  I knew that the fan on the video card was bad, so I replaced the video card.  This does not solve the problem.  I did so that the keyboard and mouse could get the computer from sleep mode, but it is still not correct the problem.  If I let the computer to sleep, nothing happens when I move the mouse or press the Crescent Moon on the keyboard.  The screen remains dark.  Then I have to physically press the power button / stop and return to restart the computer. Help me, Obi - wan!

• What happens when Task Scheduler is scheduled to wake the computer from sleep mode

  I have the windows vista Task Scheduler to wake the computer from sleep to run a command script. some tasks in the script work correctly and some do not. This is because the computer is "awake from sleep", whatever that means. This is not what is happening, because the tasks that the batch script runs when the computer is actually on, with display and all are very different tasks, it runs while the computer gets "awakened from his sleep", so what happens exactly when the task schedler wakes up the computer of mode sleep under vista? How is it possible to emulate a real awake state with the Task Scheduler to a State of sleep, according to a schedule?

  computer crashed, have windows vista, indented leave, all the documents lost, can I get all the files, how to do it, in simple terms,

  Thank you.

  If by "computer of new beginning" you mean that you have started your recovery or disk restore factory set and reinstalled Windows, then the ability to recover your files is practically zero.  You can try a utility like Recuva (http://www.piriform.com/recuva) but since you have rewritten the entire hard drive, it is highly unlikely that anything will be recoverable.

• T400 - Fn key wake computer from sleep mode.

  It is therefore normal that pressing the Fn key + another key (on the keyboard) - computer wakes from sleep?

  Or something wrong with the operating system?

  In fact, the single Fn key should wake up the machine to sleep/wake.

  Nothing wrong with the operating system.

  Kind regards.
