H61MU-E35 hibernation issue

I can't get this board to wake-up from hibernation (S4) properly.
Exactly every third time going out of hibernation the system halts before the MSI-logo just showing "A3" in the corner. (I have tried going in and out of hibernation approx. 20 times in a row and every third time the system halts.)
Going in and out of Standby (S3) works OK.
Shouldn't this board support hibernation?

H61MU-E35(B3) - Beeps Code issue

Hello Everybody!
I've got a problem with my MSi H61MU-E35(B3) Motherboard. The board has been purchased in June 2011 and in the beginning it seemed not giving any problems.
Now, i've got that problem: if i keep my system off about more than 4 or 5 days, the speaker beeps 3 times shortly. I can solve this issue only changing some options like unplug and replug SATA devices or removing and reinstalling CPU or RAM, otherwise clearing CMOS.
How could i solve this issue? This system isn't mine and the owner couldn't always bring me it back for reset.
Thanks for help!

When you say 'off' do you mean powered off or in a standby/hibernate mode?
When i powered on the system, it was in hibernate mode. Could it cause this issue?
He also tells me that when he left it off, he unplugged the AC Power from the PSU.

H61MU-E35 issues?

Hi there,
I am having some issues with my MSI based Sandy Bridge system. I have the H61MU-E35 mainboard with the I3-2100 cpu. Today the system won't boot, it hangs some time a post code A2, then it shows the MSI bootscreen and then i goes black. I can enter the bios, but there are my bootdisk (SSD Vertex 2 60GB) and one storage disk (Samsung Spinpoint F4 2TB hdd) missing. I only my 1,5TB Samsung Spinpoint F2 disk and the optical disk (as well Samsung).
The other day (twoo weeks ago or so) i had a bsod while booting: 0x00000074 bad_system_config_info. I had to reinstall Windows, that helped it till today. But now there's a problem again and I don't know how to analyse it this time. Can someone think with me here? Thanks a bunch!
My system is:
Core i3 2100
H61MU-E35
Corsair XMS3 4GB DDR3-1333 CL9 kit
Be Quiet Pure Power L7 300W
OCZ Vertex 2 Extended 60GB
Samsung Spinpoint F2 EcoGreen 1.5TB
Samsung Spinpoint F4 EcoGreen 2TB

I shall leave the OZC Vertex comments to people that have had experience with them. Can you confirm that your machine is stable when these OZC SSD are disconnected ? If so, then you know where to start in terms of potential hardware incompatability. Have you checked the OZC forum for any similar experiences and/or fixes ?
Searching for problems on Vertex drives, the net seems to be full of reported issues.
btw, did you use IDE or AHCI mode on initial installation. The recommendation is AHCI for SSDs.

BIOS Update Issues - H61MU-E35

Hey all,
I'm a bonehead, and managed to commit a flurry of small mistakes that led me to having an FAT32 formatted USB disk with the E7680vC3.exe update file for the MSI® H61MU-E35, but no Windows Machine to boot it up on. Is it possible that anyone out there has the additional files that appear on the USB drive after doubleclicking on it to begin the BIOS update process? It won't even begin if it doesn't detect the correct board, and I don't know anyone else with it.

It looks like you are already getting assistance on this at your other thread;

H61MU-E35 (B3) Updating BIOS....File Not Found Error

I have MSI H61MU-E35 (B3) Motherboard with Intel i3 CPU.
I downloaded latest BIOS File 7680vC3.zip (on web page it's says Version: 12.3 from -> -www.msi.com/support/mb/H61MUE35_B3.html#down-bios
Using Windows XP OS From 7680vC3.zip => Extracted E7680vC3.exe => Placed on USB Drive (I did not format USB Pendrive, and used by just making it empty by deleting files) ==> Ran this exe file on the computer where this motherboard is....
Inside Windows XP, when BIOS Update process started, In a green window, it shown me current BIOS old version and New Version side by side. (I did not given much attention to notedown from which number to which number it's updating).
In Windows XP after BIOS Process completed, it restarted computer (I kept USB File as it in the computer as I had read that, I have to keep USB in computer after restart).
When computer restarted...nothing came on the screen and just blank screen for long time and on the right side on screen bottom corner only letter like: A2 stayed for long long time. I waited for 15 minutes but nothing was happening except blank screen...
So, I restarted computer....and kept USB as it is in the computer....but Nothing comes on the screen...
After I concluded that, something is wrong, to resolve the issue...
--- What Try and Experiments I have done ----------------------------------------------------------------
(1) I placed Restarted computer without USB: and Message comes on the screen is:
BIOS Update is not yet completed, please insert the USB pen drive and reset system.
(2) I refered some forums, and also contacted MSI Support. As suggested, I formatted USB Drive with FAT32 and placed E7680IMS.C30 file (only one file) on USB placed in computer and started computer.. Now Message is coming:
Updating BIOS...... File Not Found..
Note that: E7680IMS.C30 File was given to me by MSI Support Staff as I did not kept Original files during formatting USB PenDrive.
But computer is not looking for .C30 Rom File, Computer is looking for .BIN File
(3) I have remove the battery and waited for 5 min. and placed again, to reset BIOS, but not difference on result or on message...
Renamed: file E7680IMS.C30 to EIVB.BIN
Result: Just Blank Screen with A2 text on right side bottom corner, No other message
In some other same issue post, they recommand to change ROM File name to: EIVB.BIN which worked for others, so I also tried and renamed: file E7680IMS.C30 to EIVB.BIN, in this case, I was able recreate original Issue: When computer boots, Screen stays completely Blank, and on the right side bottom corner, only 2 digit tect comes is: A2. Computer does not give any other message and nothing happens...even I waited for 30 minutes...
Also, by looking at USB Pendrive light, I can tell that, motherboard is reading file on the Pen Drive...
Renamed: file E7680IMS.C30 to E7680IMS.BIN
Result: Message comes on the screen: Updating BIOS...... File Not Found..
(5) What I am thinking is: When motherboard power-ups, it's giving me two different type of Valid message based on if USB is in the computer or not, based on if file name is .BIN or not, so I believe motherboard is still not dead and there are hope to feed the file which motherboard is looking for. But issue how to find what specific file which it's looking for... Even sometime I have seen at screen right side bottom area, 2 Digit numbers are changing just like system is doing internal healthcheck before booting up...
(6) Note that, I would like to put old version file on USB to feed, but one of the biggest issue with MSI is, once you download EXE from their website, to Extract EXE file content it needs to be run on the same motherboard computer, so in my case, if your motherboard is not in bootable cituation then you can not extract any other BIOS File to try...
Please help me...by havin this computer down....I am suffering everyday...
(By profession, I am electronics Engineer and have worked with programming Microcontroller and bootloaders, but in this case, I do not have SPI Programmer to program BIOS chip externally.)

Thank you flobelix and Nichrome.
Quick Result Summary: 128MB USB Key formatted FAT32 with HP Tool, made MS-Dos Bootable and placed EIVB.BIN file given by flobelix, but final result is: Screen comes Blank and only shows "A0" Code at right side bottom corner. nothing else.
Detail
Since Flobelix proviced ROM BIN File, I was too exicited to try it out and here is what I did...
(1) As per Nichrome link for HP USB Format Tool, I installed it on "Win XP" machine, and formatted 128MB USB key by selecting "FAT32" and selected option to make "MS-DOS Bootable" and shown Win98 source files as per the instruction.
-128MB USB drive made bootable with FAT32.
(2) I downloaded EIVB.rar given by flobelix and extracted and copied EIVB.BIN file on USB root.
Inserted USB in MSI and powered up...
As soon as I give power: Imidiately one normal beep and Screen comes completly Dark Blank. No message about "File not found". only at right side bottom of screen, it shows "A0".
I inserted USB key in each and every USB slot, but result is same: Screen stays Blank and on right side corner only "A0" letter.
I given around 3-5 minutes time to see something changes on screen, but no change.
- If I power-up computer without connecting any USB Drive: then message comes on screen that: Bios Update has not completed, please insert USB Key and Reset System.
- On USB Key, If I put ROM File with any other name (except EIVB.BIN) then Message comes: Updating BIOS... File Not Found...
- I have removed battery to give a try for resetting BIOS, but not change.
Question:
(1) Is it possible that, motherboard is looking for specific version of File or some different version of file ? and just staying silent and not complaining for existing EIVB.BIN ?
Here is I experiment: I simply created empty text file (0 Byte) on USB Drive and given name EIVB.BIN and booted up computer and same result: Blank Screen and just "A0" on right side bottom corner.
So, it tells me that, when power is given, the program which executes in motherboard for BIOS, it is not able to identify real or fake EIVB.BIN. I think, it's looking for some specific file and when not found, it's getting confuse on what to do....and not saying anything on the screen....
Has anyone old version BIN file of H61MU-E35 (B3) ?
Is there any trick so I can download older version Packaged EXE from MSI website and extract it ? I can give a try....

X120e sleep / hibernation issues

I bought this machine about 4 months ago and as far as i remember the sleep / hibernation has never worked correctly.
So i have it set to sleep when the lid is closed, although when I close it I can see the green leds on the front near the track pad never moves into sleep. It just kind of hangs and when i open the lid the screen remains black forcing me to shut off the system by holding down the power button. I thought this would be resolved with newer firmware but doesn't look like it.
Windows 7 SP1
Model - 05962RU
BIOS - 1.14

Hello,
I wonder if there might have been some sort of problem with a corrupt setting in the operating system or with one of the drivers responsible for handling sleep or hibernation.
As part of troubleshooting this issue, did you try reloading the operating system from the recovery partition (or the recovery media) adn then running Windows Update and ThinkVantage System Update to get the ThinkPad X120e fully updated?

Hibernation issue

I have a problem with hibernate script. This is what happens:
1. I run dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.UPower" /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Hibernate
2. System hibernates nicely and quickly.
3. I power the computer back on
4. System resumes nicely (%s goes really fast)
5. Instead of desktop, I see black screen with blinking "_" sign in the top left corner.
At this point I have to hard-reset the computer.

You mean the arch wiki article that's flagged as poorly written?
FWIW I've always used pm-utils, also the Arch Wiki way, and I've had few issues. Basically, you just add the resume path to /boot/grub/menu.lst and then run:
# pm-hibernate

Solaris 8 hibernation issue

We have a Sun server with Solaris 8 installed. Once in a while, the server goes into its hibernation mode and does not accept any incomming request (i.e. ping, telnet,...). Our IT person had disabled and removed all power saving related services on the server and it still happens.
Does anyone know a fix or a work around to this problem?

Forgot to include the error messages from Ingres when the problem arises:
$ ckpdb xthreshdb
Mon Sep 17 15:53:01 2007 E_DM00AB_CANT_MAP_SHARED_MEM Could not map the server's shared memory. Please check errlog.log for more details.
Mon Sep 17 15:53:01 2007 E_DM1051_JSP_NO_INSTALL The installation is not currently running. Run INGSTART then try again.
Mon Sep 17 15:53:01 2007 E_DM1001_JSP_INIT An error occurred initializing the journal support program. Make sure program is installed and/or you are running with proper privilege.
This appears to be down to the user being unable see/use the services started as the Ingres user

Standby/hibernation issues after driver upgrades

Hi
I recently upgraded a whole bunch of drivers for my T500 (including a BIOS update, the PM driver and software, fingerprint reader, etc) and now when I try go into Standby or Hiberation, my machine goes to the "Preparing to Standby..." screen but nothing ever happens. It's not frozen because the mouse still works, but it just never does anything. Strangely, it doesn't happen if I've just rebooted though, but I have no idea of what is causing the issue. I've tried making sure that all applications etc are closed in case it's an app that's causing the issue, but it still does it. I'd like to try reinstalling the old PM drivers etc, but I can't find them on the website.
Does anyone have an ideas or maybe some tips on how to troubleshoot this?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
James

Idle / standby / hibernation issues with T400

Hello,
I would like to know if anyone knows why
A) When returning from hibernation the screen is off (in the login screen) and until I move the mouse it doesn't turn on again
B) After hibernating, when turning on the computer the screen of the bios (with the logo of thinkpad) appears twice, just after showing the screen it appears like rebooting again.
C) Sometimes, when the computer is idle it has a espontanius reboot. It can go to sleep mode and if not it restarts... It never happen when working with it.
I am running vista bussiness 32 bits. I have all packages from thinkvantage activated
