Windows Forum / Windows Vista / General Topics / May 2008Hibernate and Sleep problems
Hi, New to the forums and a noob. Just wondering why when I put my computer to sleep it immediatley wakes up without pressing any keys or moving mouse. Same with Hibernate... I press hibernate it starts saving all info shuts off (power light off) within 5 seconds it is starting up again. Can anyone help? With as much info as possible because I dont understand much :(  SignatureAsh1402 Ash1402;721384 Wrote: > Hi, New to the forums and a noob. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Can anyone help?

Mouse was bought seperate. SignatureAsh1402 Ash1402;721414 Wrote: > No both wired. Keyboard came with computer. Mouse was bought seperate. Hello Ash1402, No guarantee.Try this :- Control Panel>System & Maintenance> Power Options> Change plan settings> Change Advanced power settings> scroll to Multi-media settings, click the + sign> + sign again on When sharing media> Plug In, set it at "allow computer to sleep" > Apply/OK Signaturet-4-2 Thanks, That works for sleep... not checked hibernate yet. Why would that option evene be in the computer? seems pretty stupid to me.

With as much info as possible because I dont > understand much :( Hi Ash, Welcome to Vista Forums. :party: This tutorial may be able to help you find out what is waking up the computer from sleep mode. I would check your Network device and BIOS to make sure that the *Wake On ...* settings are disabled or off. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/63567-power-options-sleep-mode-problems.html Hope this helps, Shawn SignatureBrink *There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.* '*VISTA FORUMS*' (http://www.vistax64.com) *Please post feedback to help others.* Is it one or the other? I can't seem to get both to work... for me right now sleep works but hibernate doesnt. Earlier I had it opposite. SignatureAsh1402 Ash1402;721525 Wrote: > Is it one or the other?

What I'm going to say is purely speculating at best, borderline rediculous. Start with "sleep". Make sure it works. Then reboot. Now tackle the "hibernate". Make sure it works. Then reboot. This time, try one after the other, without reboot. Signaturet-4-2 t-4-2;721533 Wrote: > Hello Ash1402, > I don't have hibernate in my option.

Then reboot. > This time, try one after the other, without reboot. Hello Ash1402, You might have to do a system restore first, pick yesterday as your restore point. You must have missed a step or two while following the tutorial. Anyway, you have to go back to the state before the tutorial. Then start over. Signaturet-4-2 OK... now the tutorial totally took it away from doing either. No sleep or hibernate now SignatureAsh1402 Ash1402;721528 Wrote: > OK... now the tutorial totally took it away from doing either. No sleep > or hibernate now What step in the tutorial took both away? Shawn SignatureBrink *There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.* '*VISTA FORUMS*' (http://www.vistax64.com) *Please post feedback to help others.* I fixed it after doing a restore thanks for the help. The part messing me up was the advanced power settings... dont know why but it stopped both again All fixed now though... Thanks guys SignatureAsh1402 Ash1402;721679 Wrote: > I fixed it after doing a restore thanks for the help.

I thought you could only get it one or the other. How did you get it "all fixed now" ?? Signaturet-4-2 I took your advise about the system restore and after that it all went smoothly and fine SignatureAsh1402 Ash, I'm glad to hear that you got it working again. Thank you for the feedback.
