s10-2 get stuck in sleep mode or closed lid, after changing to win 7 [ Edited ]

[idoadmoni]

I did fresh install to windows 7, and installed all the drivers, and now if I leave the lid open or close it, it goes to sleep or hibernate and I can't wake it up.

The power button blinks or the light stays on neither way I tried pressing keys or pressing the power button and nothing happens but I can feel it "think".

Only holding the power button for shutdown "helps".

I tried changing the options in windows power management and at the lenovo energy management, and didn't found something that solve it.

Thanks

try to re-install power management and check system logs for errors.
( right click my computer > manage > event logs )

[idoadmoni]

installed power managment again, still doesnt work..
what im looking for at the event log?
i see a massage
"The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."

what i need to look for and where?

[yigit]

an error that may cause system stops working.
which version bios do you have? flashing it may solve your issue.

also, have you tried to use hibernate mode only?

[idoadmoni]

Updated the bios even that I think that I already did it before..so it didn't helped

and hibernate is working fine.

For now I canceled the sleep mode timer and when closing the lid..

And allowed hardrive shutdown or something like that..tried stuff in the windows power management

i've faced some similar issue with hibernate/sleep and i think it's windows 7 issue. if you didn't update windows, you can try it, it may work. otherwise, as i said before to other user, use hibernate.

[idoadmoni]

im always updating the windows so it didnt helped..

For now ill use hibernate..

Do  u think reinstalling windows will help? (don't really want to do but if it helped someone I will..)

[yigit]

as i remember, no, but you can try.
and please, let us know if you perform clean windows installation and if it works.

Hi

I have an Lenovo S10-2, i got it from my school with 1GB ram and XP on it, but i had an old laptop that uses the same ram like my lenovo so i took the ram and put them into it so i got 2GB ram, and then i installed Windows 7 on it, All the drivers installed and programs like Energy Management.. But when it is on High Perfomance its getting so hot that im thinking "On high performance does that overclock the pc or what ?" and does it overclock it ??

And when im setting it on sleep i cant get it to start again its just a black screen what can i do there ??

there's common issue with some windows 7 systems about sleeping.

is it similar with the issue below?
