Hello all,
I am having an issue here, every time I put my computer to sleep it will not wake up. No Blue screen codes. The fans will spin up but the display never loads. It eventually reboots and windows does'nt have a record of it happening. I have W7 Home 64, this didnt happen to me in the beta version. I am running latest cat drivers and latest drivers for everything. What do you all think?
 
I know I am not much help but I have used both hibernate and sleep without any problem.Using W7 HP 64.Hibernate seems to take longer to come up than sleep mode.Are there not bios options for these.Not sitting in front of rig.
 
Reset your BIOS to default values, and ensure that you have the latest version of the BIOS (this is no guarantee, but it may help). If the system doesn't crash then, then you've found your culprit.

*Check if BIOS update is available and if his relevant to your problem.
*Try to downgrade you video drivers and see if it helps.
 
Go to the installation folder of ATT and open "atitray.ini" and look for "opt_force_unload_att=0" and change 0 to 1. Now restart ATT and enter sleep mode to see if it will wake up. It worked for me. But for some reason ATT fails to load after waking, so I have to manually start it after sleep mode.

I have the latest bios on the motherboard. I can't seem to find the files you are speaking of. If I end all processes that involve ATI and put the computer to sleep, I still have the same problem.
 
I'm also encountering this problem. I've been forced to disable the sleep mode. What does your event viewer show?

On top of this, I'm also experiencing random restarting, no BSOD, etc. Really frustrated so far
 
that is a video driver issue.. update your driver to latest or roll back version by version..

i have had that problem on a few laptops and pc/
 
I do not recieve anything in event viewer. I will try to roll back driver, I would think others would experience something similar if it was just the vid driver. I will let u know if the driver is the issue.
 
I tried rolling back the drivers and even uninstalling ATI and letting windows use it's own driver and the problem still remains.
