I have an X201 Tablet (3113-W4M) that came preloaded with Windows XP SP3.  I blew away the XP image and reloaded with Windows 7 Enterprise and obtained all Windows 7 drivers from the Lenovo website.

The issue is that after the system resumes from Sleep or Hibernate *and* I plug in a USB mouse or USB mouse/keyboard combo, I am unable to lock, shutdown, restart, or hibernate the system.  Additionally, anything that invokes UAC fails to display.  If I look at Processes under Task Manager, I see where consent.exe is running (called when a UAC approval prompt should be displayed).  Sometimes it is running multiple times corresponding to multiple events that should have displayed the prompt (e.g. running RegEdit).  Turning off UAC is a workaround to this issue but does not address the root cause and does not address the lock/shutdown/etc. issue.

After extensive troubleshooting that included 2 full OS reloads, process monitoring, and deep log reviews, I have narrowed my issue to the following steps:

1) Boot tablet with no USB mouse and/or keyboard attached

2) Attach USB mouse and/or keyboard

>>>Attempt to lock workstation and launch Regedit both function as expected.

3) Hibernate tablet (USB mouse and/or keyboard attached)

4) Resume from hibernate (USB mouse and/or keyboard attached)

>>>Attempt to lock workstation and launch Regedit both fail

I discovered this as I move my system from work (Logitech S510 keyboard/mouse combo) to home (Logitech LX 310 mouse).  I have all current Windows 7 updates and I have installed the latest Setpoint from Logitech.  The issue occurred before and after the SetPoint software was installed.

Oddly, I can restart the system via command line using "shutdown -r" but it takes 4 to 5 minutes as opposed to less than a minute when this is is not occurring.

Thanks in advance to the community.

you may want to look at the blackscreen issues we have been having with the x200 tablets.  could be related.

Try the Microsoft hotfix suggested in this thread, so far it is working for me:
