Laptop Won't Recover From Hibernate In Windows 7?
Jul 23, 2009
I had Windows 7 running great on my Dell XPS M1530 Notebook, until I turned it on this morning before work and left it on. Apparently while I was gone, it went into sleep or hibernate, and then, when I turned it on last night nothing came up on my display or my second monitor. The computer acted just as if it was booting up normally, but nothing ever showed up on the LCD. I waited over an hour, thinking it may just be having a hard time recover from hibernate, but nothing happened. I then had to just reset using the power button to retry. I did that several times with the same results. Then I unplugged it and just let the charge run out, hoping it would work this morning, but same deal.

Just recently my Laptop has started to crash/hang when placed into hibernation. if I put it into hibernation the screen goes black (which normally happens) then the fan goes crazy, I have to press and hold the power button to get it to shut off. I have noticed when I've come back to my laptop during the day that I have an error message that says "windows has recovered from a serious error" just put it down to overworking. also if I leave my laptop it "sleeps" but I haven't set it to do this, and if it does sleep it crashes the same as it does when hibernating. The only thing I have done that may be causing it is I upgraded the RAM to 8GB, I ran the windows memtest and it came back with no errors.
By using a program the culprits seem to be:
afd.sys
ntoskrnl.exe
usbhub.sys
Bug code is always 0x000000fe
My Laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1564, running windows 7 64 bit OEM , 8GB RAM with the newest SP, I have attached all the information as requested.

I had a terrible time trying to get my ASUS K52 laptop to sleep and hibernate (win 7 home premium). I scoured the net looking at all kinds of things like using the commands,powercfg -a,powercfg -devicequery wake_armed,sfc -scannow,I tried to boot into safe mode and never did figure out how to actually do that. And so on and so on.I was really motivated because if I was running on battery, it would just completely drain the battery and crash hard.The display would dim and turn off as expected but it would never sleep and certainly would not hibernate.I finally figured out one problem was that my wife was logged in on my laptop. I did not think that would be a problem. Sometimes she uses my computer when I am away and then do a "Switch user" but NOT a logout.Apparently, this will stop your laptop from sleeping. Once I logged her out, then it I could sleep at the expected time. But it still would not hibernate or turn off hard disk. So I went through all the advanced settings, yet again, in my power config window, everything made sense and I followed all the recommendations for the various settings I saw online. Finally just pressed "restore defaults" and Whaddya know?! Hibernate worked at the expected time. I used the "Balanced" power plan.Now, FINALLY, my laptop works as expected and I really like the "Sleep" mode and it goes to hibernate overnight to save even more power. I don't why it was so flaky before. It seemed like I had a virus that was monkeying with my power settings but it's been working perfectly for over a two weeks now so I think it's licked.

For the past few days Windows refuses to shutdown. Everytime I select the sleep, hibernate or shutdown options it will reboot/reawaken straight away. I have tested the RAM which had no problems, I reinstalled Windows completely which didn't help & I checked power settings in BIOS to disable auto-restart. Laptop works fine when on, just refuses to power down - only holding the power button will get it to stop doing anything!

I recently removed a fake windows restore virus and now, unlike before, when I select hibernate, the laptop actually just shuts down. When I restart everything I was working is gone. Obviously something is corrupted. Is there a way to repair that? To get rid of the virus I used a combination of Webroot, a program called trojan-killer and system restore.

Ok so when I had XP I would always use hibernate and only about once a week I would actually reboot the computer completely. Now that I have Windows 7 I would like to do the same. But now when I click hibernate the screen goes black and everything shuts off but the computer acts like its in standby. The lights are still on and computer is running.
Once this happens I cannot get back into windows or reboot without holding down the power button to force a reset. Each time that I have done with Windows 7 boots an error saying the computer was not shutdown correctly. Anyone know why it won't completely power off when I click hibernate. I have tried it about 5 separate times and it has not worked once.

I have a Dell XPS M1330, Windows 7 64bit RC1, and have never been able to hibernate it. It sleeps fine, but when I press the hibernate button, the screen fades out, turns off momentarily, then comes back to the desktop. If I have "require password on wakeup" turned on, it will come back to the locked login screen.
The drivers are up to date on windows update. I have tried every combination in the "Advanced Power Settings" window, I have tried powercfg -h off and on, and setting size to 100% but nothing helped.
I'm going to be traveling soon, and having the hibernate option would help a great deal. Can anyone help?

whenever my laptop is in sleep it goes into hibernation after a period of time.. the only problem i have with this is that the hibernation feature freezes my comp due to a known issue that has no drivers yet.
So just give me the steps.

I purchased my laptop about 3 weeks ago and have been using it to stream online classes I'm taking. I'm using an ASUS K53E notebook which was purchased at a local Best Buy. It is running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and I have Kaspersky PURE installed on my computer.
For the first 2-2.5 weeks of usage, the laptop has been as smooth as can be. However, as of last Friday (9/2), I noticed that the laptop would crash every time I shut it. The screen would go black, like it's going to hibernate, but the hard disk would never shut down (green lights on the front of the laptop stayed on) and I would either have to manually power down the laptop or wait for it to get BSOD and then shut itself down. I have since stopped hibernating it and shutting it down completely each night, but it's getting extremely frustrating and worrisome that at some point, the laptop will become completely useless.
I've looked through the forums already and seen that others have been having this problem. If this has been resolved, can I ask what others have done to get rid of the BSOD? I have not attached my BSOD crash report, as I have not copied it yet nor do I really want to cause another BSOD just for the report.

My laptop is an MSI Gx660, running windows 7 64bit with 12gb ram.The laptop is only 1-2months old and My harddisk has very little files with about 205gb free on the C drive.
After using for a long period of time like 6-7hours, I would usually put my laptop into hibernate mode.When I click hibernate, the screen turns black but even after 20mins the power button including wifi and other lights doesnt go off, which I have to force shutdown by holding the power button. Even sleeping the laptop after 6-7hours does the same issue, unable to go to sleep(indicated by the blinking power button)
The wierd thing is that if I use the laptop for about 2 hours or less, I am able to fully hibernate or sleep, which I tested a few times.

When I try to hibernate, the screen goes black, then immediately comes back to the log on screen; this is regardless of whether I go into hibernate via the start button, pushing the power button, or closing the lid. I have each of those methods set to hibernate.I actually cloned my original HDD to an SSD; the original HDD was about 10GB larger than the SSD, but nowhere full. I was not experiencing any issues with the HDD. After the clone, I am not having any functionality issues besides the inability to go into hibernate mode.What I've tried so far includes: Followed all steps in the tutorial/guide for the enable/disable hibernate. here Looked through my BIOS settings, reverted them to defaults. Performed a disk repair. Ran CCleaner.
Looked through all my power plan settings to ensure hibernate is enabled and no options say "never" for hibernate. Increased the file of hibersys.fil to 100% per the tutorial hereThe rationale for using hibernate and why this is a big deal to me is as follows. Booting take time compared to dehibernating, which is instant. Also, more importantly, I usually have at least 8 instances of word/excel/email client/PDFs/web browser open as I work on a project. I often need to power down the laptop and then continue where I left off and reopening all of those items is quite annoying. Using hibernate, I do not have to close the various documents/programs to power down. This increases my efficiency enormously. Also please note that sleeping still consumes battery power where hibernating does not consume any battery power.

I put my Windows 7 laptop to hibernate when it is plugged to the power source. When I unplugged the laptop from the power source, the laptop powers off. The next time I turn on the laptop, it is restarted and I see the screen with a message that says Windows was not properly shut down.

New laptop with Win7 pre-installed. No Win7 CD. Laptop HDD came with separate recovery partition. Burnt recovery CD and backed up HDD to seperate USB HDD. Then laptop was dropped. Laptop won't boot past blank win7 desktop(with curser). Tried running HP recovery program from recovery CD but program says no recovery partition found and once again, will not boot past blank Win7 desktop. Can't get to chkdsk to run HDD fix.
With the Win7 stuff that I have, I can't get to any point where I can even determine if this laptop HDD is fixable? Is there a Win7 iso file that I can download to boot into Win7 so I can then run chkdsk and then access my backup original installation on my USB external HDD? If not, can I use one of my old original Win XP CDs to boot the laptop, run chkdsk or maybe even reformat the drive NTFS, and then install my backup Win7 setup from the external USB HDD over the now XP installed HDD?

I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 and I am using Kaspersky for protection. Last night it gave me an error (I can't remember what it said) and then when I went to reboot the computer it got as far as showing the toolbar at the bottom with the start button. Once it reached that state it stopped and just showed the hourglass. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? Or, is the computer dead and I need to try to find someplace that can fix the hard drive?

I have a dell inspiron 1721 which has 2 x 160GB HDD's configured as RAID 0. The laptop is broken but I'm almost positive the hdd's are ok. Is there something I can buy like an external dock that I can plug the 2 drives into and access the data? Maybe there is a sw solution? I thought about looking on eBay for a 2nd hand inspiron 1721 and poping in my drives but thats a bit pricey.

But my biggest obstacle is that I am just a layperson with very little knowledge of computer lingo. plain non-technical language. LOLMy HP touchsmart tm2 crashed a few weeks ago after I tried making a recovery disk using drive D on the laptop (which wasn't the smartest thing I could've done!). After a 4 hours, I got the error message that I did not have enough space. But when I tried to undo it by doing a restore point prior to the recovery disk making, it did not work and i ended up with zero memory left on my computer which led to the computer crashing. When I tried a factory reset, it did not work and i ended up with a computer that does not boot... some error i could not recall anymore.
Bottomline, I had my computer sent to a "technician" here in my city who said there was no way to boot my computer except to replace the OS.... which he did by putting a Windows 7 Ultimate operating system into my computer. It now works fine... EXCEPT for the fact that this is a pirated software. He warned me not to do updates on it as it will detect the illegal software and freeze my laptop. I cannot live with the fact that I am now using an "illegal" software when by rights, I still should be able to use the original "legal" one which came with my laptop when I purchased it.My other problem is that I did not create a recovery disk way back when i first got this laptop, so I couldn't do it from there. I have the product key to my windows 7 OS but i am not sure which version of windows 7 came with my laptop originally, i only know that my laptop has a windows 7 sticker on it plus the product key sticker in the back.
