Machine Cycles When Trying To Wake-up?

Feb 19, 2012

I can't wake up my machine after being put into sleep. It tries to switch on for a second or two (the led lids up, DVD drive is powered on, etc.) but then goes back to sleep/shutdown for a second or two and comes back trying for another second or two, and so forth. I've tried unplugging the DVD drive, but to no avail.

Power Cycles On And Off After Trying To Wake From Sleep

Apr 5, 2012

This started two days ago. When waking up from sleep, the power cycles on and off about every 2-3 seconds. This is happening before any programs are restarted, and the screen is still dark. I first thought it was my new battery backup. I called APC, and they agreed that it had failed even thou the UPS was only 10 days old,. So I disconnected it, and plugged the computer into a dedicated outlet, removed the UPS monitoring software with Revo, and then cleaned the registry with CClean, with no effect. The only new programs I've loaded, were about 2 weeks ago I added itunes, and a Win update or 2, and the battery backup software, which has been removed.

The computer is a Win 7 Pro machine about 3 months old. I7-2600, 16 GB ram, and boots from a SSD that only holds the OS, 4 TB of HD in raid 0. No mods or overclocking....Just as it came from Micro Center.

Computer Power Cycles Every 3-5 Seconds?

Feb 23, 2012

My computer decided to shut down on me in the middle of playing a game a couple of weeks ago. Hardware shut down - no warning, nothing. This is always worrisome, but it was even worse because when I went to turn it back on, it failed to post, stayed on for a couple seconds, then shut itself down. It repeated this cycle many times until I simply turned the power off on the PSU. I turned the power back on and it continued this cycle. Finally I just turned the power on the PSU off and left for the day. When I returned, I was able to boot the machine normally.About a week after that, I was once again playing EVE and the thing shut down on me and did the whole power cycle thing again. Remembering the fix from before, I turned the PSU off and left for the day. However, when I got back home, the problem persisted.

Currently, I am unable to get the computer to post on a regular basis with anything more than a single stick of ram (though it doesn't matter which stick and even then it's about a 25% chance). This includes removal of GPU, PCI cards, and HDD. Sometimes it WILL POST, but the Hard Drives are not detected, then then machine shuts down after about 30 seconds or so and returns to the power cycle mode.I cannot boot from my hard drive in my buddy's computer, but it is a much older AMD based system that originally had a 230w psu. I can however access it as a slave disk.I just replaced the PSU less than a year ago, and the graphics card about 18 months ago (an upgrade from an x1950pro, which blew the 550w PSU I had at the time).is the CPU temp sensor freaking out and shutting the machine down? Did the power supply go kaplooey (or about to)? Is my southbridge bad and causing all of the above (this is my #1 guess, as HDD's and PCI cards all cause major fail)?

Difference Between Wake Up On LAN And On Board Wake Up On LAN?

May 1, 2011

Logmein software is able to wake the computer up with On Board Wake up is disabled or enabled in BIOS.I have also Toshiba L505D.Logmein software can wake the computer up only if Wake up on LAN is enabled in BIOS.What is the difference between ASUS BIOS's On Board Wake up option and Toshiba BIOS's Wake up on LAN option? UPDATE: I found out that ASUS's Option was for diskless boot and using network hard disks as hard disks. Nothing to do with Wake up on LAN.

Can't Open A Shared File On A Windows 7 Machine If It Is Already Open On An XP Machine In Same Network

Jan 23, 2012

I have a small network of six computers. Five of them run XP and I just added a Windows 7 machine. I've got a Microsoft Access 2003 database that all of the computers share that is hosted on one of the XP machines. The Windows 7 machine can access the Access database through the network just fine, as long as no one else is accessing it. However, if someone else on an XP machine on the network is using the file, it won't open on the Windows 7 machine. Doubling clicking the file on Windows 7 gives me the circling blue icon for a second or two, then nothing happens. If the XP user exits the database, then I can open it fine. Permissions on the XP that is hosting the database is set to allow everyone. And all the XP machines can access it at the same time.

Connecting 1 Windows 7 Machine And 1 Windows Xp Machine To Share Files

Feb 6, 2011

ive got 2 computers hooked up to a router by Ethernet sharing an internet connection, the internet connection works fine for both computers. i would like to share documents also between the computers

-one is a windows xp 32
-one is a windows 7 64

ive set up many networks in the past with a bunch of xp machines without any trouble but now i am having trouble my first step was on the windows 7 machine, i went to control panel -> network and sharing center -> setup a connection or network -> set up a new network this is where i believe i am making a mistake of some kind, it seems that the windows 7 machine is assuming that i want to set up the network wirelessly, when it is connected to the router via Ethernet. it simply brings me to a screen that says choose the wireless router or access point you want to configure, and hangs there with a greyed out next button everything seems to be going fine on the xp machine, i created a new network called "share bear", told it that the computer connects through a residential gateway, enabled file and printer sharing, rebooted the machine, and confirmed that there was a new folder in the network places for shared documents..i went back to the windows 7 machine where it was still hanging, rebooted it, looked for the new network in network and sharing center and it wasn't there, i tried again to "set up a new network" on the windows 7 machine with the same hanging screen

Networking - Machine Can Only See One Another Machine

Aug 18, 2009

I have a small three PC home network. Two PC are running Windows 7 and one running Vista.

All three machines have the same homegroup settings. The ability to view machines on the network is very patchy. One machine can see the others, while another machine can only see one other machine. Sometimes machines cannot see any others on the network.

All machines are connected wirelessly with strong signals through a BT 2700HGV Business Hub router. All of the machines can access the Internet without problems.

All machines run Eset Smart Security with the Windows firewall is turned off.

Any advice to create a stable network would be appreciated.

Installing Windows 7 Using An Old HDD On An Old Machine To Install Windows 7 On A New Machine?

Dec 17, 2012

Installing W7 using an old HDD on an old machine to install W7 on a new SSD to be used on a new machine.I'm currently using this old machine from '09 and its performance levels have died down a lot. I bought all the components to build a new machine except I didn't want to spend extra money on another HDD to install the OS on my new 180GB Intel SSD. So basically, I want to use the HDD from my old computer, install W7 onto the SSD, then transfer the drive to my new computer, and use it on the machine and just reinstall all my other files.

Can't Wake From S3 With Keyboard Or LAN

Apr 1, 2012

I've spent countless hours looking for solutions on google and i can't fix it.My HTPC can go in S3 standby mode successfully. BUT the only way to wake my computer is to press the power button. When i wake it up, it starts where it was before so S3 mode is working. Problem is just waking it up.The weirdest thing is that it USED to work. Around 2 months ago i was waking up my computer with my keyboard and it worked. But i stopped to use this feature, and now that i need it, it isn't working anymore.

Oh, also wake-on-LAN isn't working neither. And it also used to be working 2 months ago. I really don't know what happenned.Here's a couple of screenshots. Sorry my windows is in french, but i'll translate the text for you:

Apr 1, 2012

Problem is just waking it up.The weirdest thing is that it USED to work. Around 2 months ago i was waking up my computer with my keyboard and it worked. But i stopped to use this feature, and now that i need it, it isn't working anymore.Oh, also wake-on-LAN isn't working neither. And it also used to be working 2 months ago.

Picture from my BIOS

Device manager -> Keyboard -> Power management
>>> Option "Allow this device to wake computer from standby mode" is checked
>>> Option "allow computer to turn off this device to save energy" is unchecked and greyed out
Device manager -> Network cards -> Realtek PCIe -> Advanced
>>> Wake on pattern match : ACTIVATED
>>> Wake on Magic Packet : ACTIVATED

Can't see it on screenshot but the option "Stop wake on LAN" is DISABLED (i also tryed to turn it on but it doesn't change anything)

"powercfg -devicequery wake_armed" tells me that my keyboard is allowed to wake my computer
"powercfg -a" tells me that S3 mode is supported, but S1 and S2 is disabled (that's normal)

Power configuration :

S1 after : Never
Allow hybrid mode : Yes
S3 mode after : 60 minutes
Allow wake timers : No
Selective USB suspension : Off

My hardware:

AMD A6-3650 APU W/ AMD Radeon 65XX HD / Socket FM1 2.6GHZ 4MB 100W
Gigabyte A75M-D2H
Antec Fusion Remote Black HTPC Case
Seasonic 450w 80+Gold (fanless)
4GB G.SKILL Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D-4GBXL DDR3-1600
Crucial M4 SSD

Solutions tryed, unsuccessfully:

- resetting BIOS/CMOS
- updating BIOS and all other drivers to latest versions
- disabling all other USB devices
- tryed every single USB slots, with and without USB hubs, usb2 instead of usb3 and vice-versa...
- tryed with two different power supplies
- tryed different keyboards
- tryed mouse instead of keyboard, LAN instead of USB...

Wake-On-LAN Over Internet?

Jan 24, 2013

Wake-on-lan stops working after being in sleep mode or off for an extended time (hours?). Bios is set correctly at S3, router port 9 correctly forwarded, W7 security is set correctly, and the NIC properties are set to allow magic packets to wake the machine. Everything works perfectly all the time over my LAN no matter how long the PC is off. When I send WOL remotely over the Internet it works fine in sleep mode or turned off for a while then fails. I have noticed after waking from sleep that the internet connection icon in the W7 tray indicates a loss of Internet but automatically reacquires after a few seconds. I think this is the root of mine and many other's problem. Something is shutting off the Internet connection. Because the system will wake over the LAN when this happens it proves that the bios, router, ans NIC are alive and passing the packets. My router and LAN IP addresses have not changed either. why the system would stop communication with the internet?

Wake From Hibernate When Not At Home?

Sep 15, 2012

Title says it all. There are some things you can do from a distance using other pc's, a phone, etc, but I hate leaving my computer on. Anybody have any creative ways to be able to wake a computer up from a distance? Hibernate preferable but I understand it may be unreasonably difficult, perhaps sleep would be better? Still, sleep doesn't give the energy saving advantages as hibernation.

BSOD On Wake Up From Sleep

Dec 21, 2011

It's my first time posting! I've been browsing this forum and many sites on google trying to find the solution to my problem, but I can't really understand what is going on, even when taking a look at the dump file. I ran memtest, did all the usual things, but no sign of source of error to pin point. Every single time I put my laptop to sleep and keep it like that for longer amount of time (I think it's about 20 minutes) I can't get my laptop back from sleep in a normal fashion. What I mean is, that the screen never turns back off, stays completely black, my external monitor doesn't turn on either, just goes to idle mode. After reboot I get a message that there was a blue screen error and I can try to look for solution online. I read that my SSD HDD might be the cause of it, but after updating the firmware the problem persisted and after looking at my memory dumps, I found out that DirectX kernel is causing the problems, but updating it didn't yield any results, the problem persists, so perhaps I am missing something in the dumps that aren't that obvious to spot.My RAM aren't stock that came with computer, both chips 4GB each are aftermarket ones, but I have no issues with anything when using the computer except when it is waking up and MEMTEST didn't throw me any errors after an overnight pass.

Can't Wake-up From Sleep/hibernation?

Mar 11, 2011

I want to say 2 days ago, my computer has decided to fail when going to sleep. It is Windows 7, completely updated with no problems to that point. When it falls asleep and I wake it up, the machine starts up and is active, but my monitors and external hard drive are never turned on as they once were and the machine just sits there running with a black screen. I restart, boot back into Windows and it says resume (as if it was in hibernation, but I have hybrid sleep on) and I just get a flashing underscore and no more. I restart once again, it says Windows could not restore the session, I start a new session and all is good again... until the computer falls asleep and the process starts over.

I have tried turning off hybrid sleep. No good. I have tried using hibernation instead of sleep. Same error. I found online where someone said they had this problem with an ATI card, but once the upgraded the Catalyst Control Center and drivers, they had no problems. That did no good. The only update I've done recenly is Firefox, but I have not seen any other reports of the newest Firefox causing sleep problems. I read where someone had a problem with waking up from sleep mode because of Firefox's memory leaks and they said closing Firefox before putting it to sleep helped.It does not matter if I put it to sleep and wake it up immediately or if it goes to sleep and when I get home from work, boot it up. The same thing happens no matter the length of time.I have a dual boot with Ubuntu, but that has been on there for months with no errors and Ubuntu will sleep and wake up just fine. There have been no hardware changes or any hardware driver changes other than the video card. I tried rolling back video card drivers to see if there was a difference with no change. My ASRock MB has the most up to date BIOS that has been out for over a year. My video card is a 5770, but like I said, I've tried older and new drivers. I tried the prevx black screen fix with no luck.

BSOD Upon Sleep Wake Up?

Jul 8, 2012

My problem usually comes when I put my computer to sleep, and then wake it up. Instead of just jumping right to the desktop screen, it now goes back to the motherboard screen and does a resuming windows operation that takes 5x as long as it used to.

Sometimes this problem causes the computer to simply restart and get a BSOD, when I am in the process of resuming windows.

EDIT: I believe I have actually gotten 2 separate BlueScreen reports during this... d1 1033, and 1e 1033.

Windows 7 x64
