Display Won't Resume on Wake

Hi, I have rune into an issue with a Pavilion g60-230us laptop that I can't seem to resolve. After going to sleep or closing the lid, when I open the lid again the laptop wakes up, but the display never resumes. I can see it kind of try to come on, but nothing ever shows on the screen. I am currently on Windows 8.1 Pro, but saw the behavior when it was still on Windows 7 Premium. The system is 32 bit and not running a separate display adapter, just the integrated Intel configuration. I have tried downloading the latest Windows 7 driver from the HP support page for the g60 but it didn't help. I have also deleted the display in device manager, rebooted and let Windows find and install its own driver, but this also didn't help. Keyboard and mouse both have the box checked for allow this device to wake the computer in the power settings.
I'm hoping someone has run into and resolved this issue and has an answer.
Thanks, 

Hi,
There could be driver compatibility issues with Windows 8/8.1..
Check you have tried all the steps mentioned in the link below:
Resolving Problems with Sleep and Hibernate Modes (Windows 8)
If the problem continues then you can try reinstalling the OS and starting all over again..
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

  • MBP display won't stay off, wakes from sleep

    I have a newish 15" MBP, 1680 display, hooked up to a Dell external monitor when it's at home. When I go to bed I cut power to the display via control-shift-eject, but generally don't put the computer to sleep overnight.
    With this new machine, after it's been running for a while (as little as a day, or as long as a couple weeks), the displays will come on again in the night. Once this happens, the displays won't stay off for longer than about five seconds. If I then put the machine to sleep, it'll wake itself up minutes or hours later (generally not long enough to miss a Time Machine interval). The only cure is rebooting.
    I tried an SMC reset, but that fix only lasted about as long as any other reboot.
    I've since tried systematically removing every peripheral (a USB hub, the external display, any directly-connected iOS devices) and testing display-off after each; no change. I've turned off my Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, then disabled Bluetooth on the computer, turned off wifi, quit every menu extra (jitouch, Viscosity, Dropbox, Pastebot, Fastscripts, Transmit, Teleport), and quit every running application. The problem remains repeatable after every step.
    It's repeatable at the moment — any suggestions for other things to try, preferably short of the reboot which temporarily masks the problem? I'm a little concerned that it's going to manifest at some point while I have the laptop sitting in a bag, which will then cook itself.
    I'm on 10.6.4 now, the problem started on 10.6.3.
    Thanks.

    Try checking the system logs in Applications/Utilities/Console.app for clues. The entries carry time stamps. Usually a wake event will leave some trace. By matching time stamps to the time of occurrence you may find the culprit.

  • Display won't wake up

    It's a brand new notebook.I've done nothing on it, other than installing Windows updates and creating recovery disks.I set the "Turn off display after" option to 1Minute.IMPORTANT: I set display brightness all the way to zero, the lowest setting possible, using either the keyboard keys, or the brightness option in Windows.Leave the notebook idle for a minute, the display sleeps like it should (the notebook is set to sleep after 30 minutes, it's only the display that sleeps, the notebook is still awake).Move the mouse, press keys on the keyboard, the screen does not come back up. The computer is still up and running-i can toggle keyboard backlight On/Off using the keys, but the display won't wake up.Press the "Brightness +" button on the keyboard, the display wakes up. This is the only way to wake it up. The other option is to press and hold the power button, force a shut down, and start the computer again.This happens ONLY when "brightess" is set to the lowest level. If brightness is set to even one level above the lowest, the issue cannot be reproduced. Moving the mouse or pressing any key on the keyboard will wake the display up in this situation.Both Intel HD graphics 5500 and GTX 850M drivers are up to date.BIOS is up to date as well.Battery/ Plugged in does not make a difference. If the display brightness is set to lowest, the screen will ALWAYS fail to wake up, irrespective of which power source is in use. What do I do? Please don't tell me it's a minor problem and I have to live with it.There are so many minor problems with this notebook, and all these are adding up to make it a total piece of cr.. My almost 5 years old probook with a second generation core i3 CPU and no discrete GPU, is better than this brand new 5th generation core i7+GeForce GTX notebook. I'm beginning to regret this purchase. I should have gotten another probook. Thought the Envy offers a better "bang for the buck", and now i think this was a huge mistake. Anyway, any idea how i can get this fixed? Looks like a driver problem right? Or is this a hardware problem? Can someone with an Envy notebook try this out and tell me if the issue can be reproduced on their rig? It can't be reproduced on my Probook.Thanks.

    Thanks for your reply Avenger Well, I called up HP tech support.The lady took remote control of my notebook and tried numerous things in the registry (regedit).But the issue could not be solved. She then arranged for an on-site support engineer to visit my house.The Engineer showed up right on the next day, and tried the following:- Updated ALL drivers, even the ones which were already up to date!Checked with my desktop monitor, the issue cannot be reproduced on the external monitor- the external monitor will wake up on moving the mouse, but the notebook monitor stayed dim (no backlight).Opened the laptop, took out the display cable, cleaned it with some solution he had, put everything back together- issue not resolved, external monitor wakes up but notebook monitor stayes dimmed. This is not the only problem I was having with the notebook, the other problems are:Battery would stop charging when the notebook is switched OFF, and the charger is turned ON and OFF a couple of times.The battery lock doesn't "click" in place, it slides automatically to the "unlock" position, it's loose.There's a dead pixel on the display. He offered me two choices: 1> Replace motherboard (to solve battery not charging issue), replace chassis (to solve the battery lock issue), and replace display panel (to solve the dim display + dead pixel issue). =======OR======= 2> Return the whole notebook back to HP, and get a new notebook (same model) in exchange.  I picked option 2. We shared a cup of coffee, and the tech left (he was very nice and friendly). The next day, I got an email from HP, with a PDF attachment, asking me to take my laptop, along with a hard copy of the email, and payment invoice, to the HP store. HP store took my computer back, but they didn't have a replacement ready, they asked me to come after 7 days to pick up a new notebook (same model). I really loved my Envy. It's a very nice looking laptop. Hope the replacement I get won't have these weird issues. I'll update the thread when I get the replacement. Thanks for your help   

  • Pavilion 15 Windows 10 won't resume from sleep

    Just updated to public release of Windows 10. When the computer goes to sleep, find that it won't resume - have to hold down the power button to get it to shut down, and then reboot it. Are there any updates to BIOS, or anything else, that I need to make to make this work properly, or is this just a Windows 10 bug (that hopefully they'll fix soon)? Thanks.

    Yes. I agree. Not all problems were resolved completely. However, speaking to a Microsoft tech (Microsoft Support UK), he has alerted Microsoft to the problem and assures me there will be a patch as soon as possible. It is either a question of Bios being out of date or the display driver. I hope they are as good as their word, However, I agree, HP seem to have been a bit slow off the mark bearing in mind the number of threads relating to these issues with Pavilion! It is possible to check for Bios but one has to feel confident - have a look at this: Sleep, shutdown and hibernation issues after upgrading to Windows 10[ New ] http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/Sleep-shutdown-and-hibernation-issues-after-upgrading-to/td-p/5213861Good luck!

  • Macbook (2.1Ghz white 2008 model) display won't turn on during start-up

           hi all,
    my problem is pretty simple.
    Sometimes, after having used an external display with my Macbook (using the Apple Mini DVI > DVI adaptor: http://store.apple.com/au/product/M9321G/B?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY ) the Macbook's own display won't power on during the next boot-up. I can hear the hard-disk start up, and the system boot, and I'm even able to navigate my way into the user login and shut the computer down (all via the keyboard). So the computer is definitely powering up (and in a seemingly normal way), but the display isn't.
    For example, last night I was using an external display with my Macbook. This morning I plug the display back into my Mac Pro, then power-up my Macbook. But the Macbook's display won't turn on. It's as though it thinks the external display is still plugged-in. I know, that if I re-connect the external display, the Macbook's login page is displayed, but only on the external screen.
    The problem only arose after I started using this particular external display (a cheap 22" BenQ, model G2222HDL 'senseye 3'). I wouldn't normally use the display with my Macbook, but my Mac Pro has a **really** noisy optical drive (CD/DVD), which makes watching films pretty unbearable (if you're into sound anyway, which I am).... so until I get my Mac Pro's drive sorted (when I have a few spare days when I won't be needing it), I'll have to continue using my external display with my Macbook to watch films.
    My Macbook's specs are as follows:
    2.1Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook (2008 model - I think, maybe 2009?)
    4Gb RAM
    Running OS X 10.5.8
    Are there any known display issues with these models of Macbook? Or are there any software/firmware updates that address any display issues?
    In general, I don't update the software/firmware unless I need to, or unless something doesn't seem to be working properly.
    However, I've just checked Software Update, and noticed there is an SMC firmware update (1.4). So I might give that a go and see if the problem persists.
    However, the problem is intermittant, and kind of unpredicatable, so I might not know for a while if it solves the problem or not.
    Has anyone else had a similar problems?
    Alternatively, is there a possibility there is some kind of virus or file-corruption causing this problem?
    My girlfriend has a similar model of Macbook (which she's never had any problems with). Recently I moved a whole bunch of files from my Macbook to hers, and she noticed that hers had a similar issue starting up, where the display failed to turn on.... so it seems like
    a) it might be a common-ish problem in this model of Macbook
    or
    b) perhaps I've got some kind of virus on mine?
    I've been using Macs for about 15 years (yet, I don't consider myself a computer expert, when it comes to the technical details). In those 15 years, viruses have never really been a concern to me, as I've never really thought they were much threat to Macs. However, I guess, as Macs get increasingly more popular, there's a possibility people will write more Mac-specific viruses...?
    Anyway, I'm open to suggestions : )
    Regards,
    Sam
    PS I've tried:
    -re-starting the computer multiple times (which sometimes works, but usually doesn't).
    -re-setting the SMC (which usually works, but not always)
    -plugging/un-plugging the external display to try and jog the computer into noticing it isn't connected (which doesn't work)

    let me ellaborate on this part:
    "b) perhaps I've got some kind of virus on mine?"
    I mean, " perhaps I've got some kind of virus on mine, and I've passed it on to hers?"

  • External display won't work on Window

    Hi can anyone please help me in this? when I using window XP, my external display won't display out but when I'm using MAC OS X it work well, why? please help... Thanks

    I can only help if you are using an NVidia graphics card, as with that you can use the NVidia Control Panel to setup the external display.
    Connect the display
    Start NVidia Control panel
    Select the Display icon
    Then select Change Display Configuration
    There you can set the resolution, extend the screen or create a copy et.c.
    Hope that helps...

    My iPhone 4S paused restore from iCloud. Now it won't resume. How do I fix this.
    Kind regards

    Start by reading through http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2634
    Are the charger nd cable original Apple parts or third-party?  There have been a lot of problems ith third party cables and chargers since iOS 7 - checks for compatibility with Apple specs.
    Try another charger and cable to see if that makes a difference.

  • My display won't go to sleep

    I just recently upgraded to the Mountain Lion OS and now my computer won't go into the screen saver (set at 10 minutes) and the display won't go to sleep (after 15 minutes).  It is on all the time.  Any suggestions?

    Same issue in ML (sorry for continuing this thread here).
    Please let me know if you figure this out. I have tried SMC/PRAM resets, disk permission repairs. Nothing.

    Help please. Extended display won't work on MBP and AOC 20" 1600 x 900  60HZ monitor. Mirror display does. I've a mini dvd to vga converter cable. Should this work?

    I have the same mini display port adapter and Belkin DVI-HDMI cable (but a Panasonic 42" Plasma HDTV) so just set this up on it to see if I could duplicate your problem, unfortunately for you (but good for me) I can't.
    I connected the adapter+HDMI cable before switching the HDTV on and then powered up the MBP. It (the HDTV) came up with my background right away (it's set at Mirror not extended Desktop) and when I run System Preferences/Displays get the following. Sorry but all I can confirm is that adapter+cable combination should work ...
    Try doing a Parameter RAM reset - hold down command/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys?

  • Display won't sleep after being in suspend once.

    When rebooting the computer, the display sleeps after set interval and can manually be put to sleep using shift+ctrl+eject.
    However if the computer goes to sleep or I myself close the lid to make it sleep, the display won't sleep again.
    The display won't sleep after set interval in power settings and when I press shift+ctrl+eject the keyboard backlit turns off but the screen stays on.
    The only way to make it sleep is to close the lid.
    I have tried resetting SMC and NVRAM but to no avail.
    I have the first generation aluminium macbook.
    Does anyone else have this problem?
    I have had this problem both in 10.6 and 10.8

  • Display won't sleep and screen saver won't sart

    I upgraded to the new OS and the display won't sleep and screen saver won't come on. Help please.

    Long shot.
    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    In Finder hold down the option/alt key while selecting the Go menu item. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
    If you want to make your user library permanently visible, run the below command in Applications/Utilities/Terminal.
    chflags nohidden ~/Library/
    You will need to do that after any updates.

  • Windows 7 64 bit won't resume after being locked

    Hello,
    My Windows 7 Pro computer will not resume after being locked.
    I use a Domain controller based on Windows server 2008 R2, and if I login with my username on any other PC, I do not have this Problem.
    When I lock it to go out for some reason, it won't resume at all. I left it on the welcome screen for an hour or so, and it didn't start.
    Do you guys have any idea what might be causing this ?
    Thank you very much for your help

    If this behavior is not exhibited on any other systems in your environment, I believe it's safe to assume the issue is with the local client.
    First things first: check that you have the latest drivers for your system. I know this seems like a canned answer, but I've seen hundreds of cases where a missing or legacy disk controller driver causes all manner of strange behavior on an otherwise healthy
    system.
    Years ago, when SSDs first starting becoming popular, I purchased a handful of them from a specific vendor. We started seeing issues with resuming from S3 sleep that confounded us for months. We found out that the vendor used a specific brand and chipset
    on their SSD controllers that wound up causing firmware faults when Windows was resumed; even to the point that we had to shut down the PC, unplug it, and let the caps drain before we could boot it again!
    We wound up replacing the drives with a more mainstream/popular brand and the issues never happened again, but the problem was hardware related. Your post reminded me of those few months of confusion.
    Check that all of your drivers are up to date, esp. disk and video, and don't rely on the Microsoft generic drivers. If you can find the drivers for your mobo/gfx cards, prefer that route.

    I have started downloading Xcode on Yosemite on my iMac. the download paused at some point and now it won't resume. no matter how many times i press resume the download remains unresponsive.. funny thing is that i can download other apps. Anyone?

    Hi Tenebreux,
    I encountered the same problem and after some search, I found one way to stop downloading and restart again:
    Go to Appstore -> Purchases
    Press 'Option' when you hover over the 'Resume' button, you will have the 'Cancel' button showing, click on it.
    Then you will find that the ongoing process is dropped.
    Click on 'Install' and a new download starts.
    Give it a try and I hope this works for you too.

  • Officejet 6700 Premium - Pauses print job and won't resume

    I recently bought this printer and set it up. It was working perfectly. I unplugged it for a few days when I went out of town. And now, after powering it back on, it won't print anything. It immediately pauses the print job and won't resume.
    I checked to make sure it was still set up to my wireless and it says that it's connected. I'm printing from my MacBook.
    I have no idea what the problem could be. Not really a techie so please describe solutions in "laymen's terms".
    Thanks!
