Windows 7 freezes after the awakening of the screen saver.

Windows 7 has recently been gel after the awakening of the screen saver that works all night.  This does not happen after shorter periods, to be in screen saver mode.

I use a (empty) delivered screensaver.  When he wakes up I can open the Control Panel, but I can't open anything else.  If I try to open a Web browser first browser does not open and I can't open the Panel configuration or any other application.  I can't even restart the computer without hitting the power button.

This is a new Windows machine and it worked fine for several months.  It is a series of of CM5571 ASUS desktop PCs. Pentium E5400 Dual Core CPU. 6 GB of ram 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.

In the event logs, I see errors repeated for SideBySide and volmgr.

My advice is that you should update the BIOS and motherboard drivers:

Have you tried updating the BIOS yet?  'freeze upwards after the awakening of the screen saver'-c' is very similar to a problem faced by Vista users with motherboards Asus 2/3 years ago:

  • Windows 7 freezes after the password entered

    It is a windows 7 Compaq Presario laptop. It freezes immediately after the entry of the password. It crashes in safe mode as well.

    (1) do you have made no changes before this problem?

    (2) do you use pictures as a screen saver?
     
    See the below link that supports you in updating the graphics driver and check if the problem persists.
     
    Method 2: Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows
     
    Method 3: You can also try using a different screen saver and check if that helps.

  • Window Vista freezes on the screen "Please wait", Symantec seems to be the problem have reinstalled but the problem persists

    Hi all

    My Toshiba Vista laptop hangs at the screen "Please wait" when restarting. I tried the clean boot and reduced to protection services of Symantec Endponit (event and the settings manager and Client Management). I went to the website of symantec and installed the latest version, but the problem persists. Any suggestions?

    Also sometimes after you start clean it will normally start with running symantec services and then go back to the gel next time I stop but I haven't worked why/when this happens.

    Thank you

    Frizzaldo

    Hi Frizzaldo,

    I'm glad to hear that you were able to find the guilty program causing the problem.

    I suggest that you completely remove the computer using the Norton removal tool, and then install the latest version of Norton, check if it works.

    Norton removal tool

    If you are still experiencing problems with Norton, then you will need to contact Norton support to see if there are known problems and no fix available.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

  • Windows 7 crash on the screen saver

    Hello

    I recently built a computer and have been broadcast on the problem of my PC crashing when you use the "Rotate display" feature in the options of power sleep menu. The screen goes black and the fans turn up to max and the PC will be unresponsive until I do a hard reboot. If I do not use the display off function, the computer will sleep very well. However if I use a screen saver, and then the PC will never put it to sleep. My PC is overclocked, but I've never had an accident that has not been associated with sleep mode. This has really been a problem I've been avoiding the use of these features, although I'd like to find the cause of the problem if possible.

    I've updated the bios and fixed the crash, however fans still spin every time the screen goes to sleep. The resolution of the problems of power did nothing.

  • My offices are reorganizing after that the screen saver is running

    Hi all

    I encountered a problem with El Capitan that I lived for a while and don't have only recently started to nail.  Every once in a while (and), my virtual workstations will reorganize.  I have three desktops that I keep open at work all the time.  Office 1 has applications assigned to him, and the other two do not.  However, Desktop 2 and 3 office often get switched.  It seems to happen after the screen saver has run for a bit, and as far as I know, I do anything to make it.  I know that you can drag - move desktop to manually reorder, but this is not what is the cause.

    Someone would have seen this happen before, and to know what anyone?  Or have I met an unknown problem?

    Thanks for the help!

    Original title: cannot run zip; error code 40 (hotfix for the video card)

    Hi, I ' m trying to view my screen saver and it seems to be causing "the screen saver can't run because it requires a newer video card or compatible with 3d graphics." (2030 M-windows7 dell) .thanks Jean-Michel

    Hi John,.

    1. what screen saver are you trying to view?

    2 is confined to a specific screen saver?

    3. have you installed SP1 for Windows 7?

    This problem occurs because of a problem in 3D screensavers.

    Fix error occurs if you have a corrupt hotfix package or may have downloaded the wrong patch for your platform.

    This can also occur if the hotfix is included in SP1 and you have already installed Windows 7 SP1.

    Method 1:

    You must make sure that the hotfix you download is depending on the version of Windows 7 installed on your computer.

    For more information, see the article:

    Error message when you set a 3D screen saver screen saver in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2: "the screen saver can't run because it requires a more recent or Direct3D-compatible video card.

    Please see if you can copy the file that you downloaded to another computer or location and try to unpack.

    When you download the fix, save it in a new location (on the desktop) and the password given with the fix allows to extract the file.

    Method 2:

    Step 1:

    You can also try to run the display quality Troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    Step 2:

    You too, try to install the latest version of the Site Web of Dell display drivers and check if it helps.

    Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.
