K9A2 Platinum (MS-7376) S3 not waking from suspend on BIOS ver 1.b

Hello,  I’m new to posting on this forum, so if I commit a faux pas, yell at me and I’ll go shoot myself.
The Problem: System will NOT awaken from S3 standby. System DOES awaken from S1 standby.
The History: Problem began after updating BIOS from Ver. 1.5 (7376v15) to Ver. 1.b (7376v1b) to provide CPU support for “AMD Phenom II X6 1090T”. (Previous CPU was AMD Phenom X4 9850)  Prior to BIOS to Ver. 1.b update, S3 standby worked just fine.
System appears to awaken (HDD spin up, etc) but the display doesn't rise and shine. My guess is the adapter doesn't get powered on.
My Thoughts: This problem appears similar to the S3 problem in BIOS ver. 1.4 which was resolved in BIOS ver. 1.5.
No other problems have been noticed as a result of the BIOS update or the CPU upgrade.
I suspect BIOS incompatibility with NVIDA Vid adapter in as much as K9A2 has had similar problem before. And apparently the K9N2 currently has a similar problem which has been acknowledged by MSI.
All thoughts appreciated . . . .
BTW – Only other concern I have with the 1090T is how to wipe the grin off my face.
Thanks for listening.

Bas,
Well Sir, as I indicated in my initial post:  "System appears to awaken (HDD spin up, etc) but the display doesn't rise and shine. My guess is the adapter doesn't get powered on."
To elaborate:  From all appearances, the PC goes into S3 suspend state just the way it has for a couple of years now.  That is to say, the HDDs spin down, the fans turn off, the lan light stops blinking, the router for this PC turns yellow from green meaning it is no longer active, the monitor blanks to black and then powers down.
When I try to resume from the apparent S3 suspend state by pressing the ctrl-space keys; the system, case, and cpu fans start spinning, the HDDs spin up, the lan light starts blinking, the router light for this PC turns from yellow to green, and the monitor powers up -
                                                      BUT  IT REMAINS BLANK, BLACK, DEAD, AS IN NOTHING DISPLAYED ON IT
And that, Sir,  is the problem, at least from my perspective.
Merry Christmas, Alfie

  • Macbook Pro Retina 2013 not waking from sleep

    Hi all,
    My brand new 15" Retina Macbook Pro (late 2013) is not waking from sleep. It doesn't occur after a short sleep (as I can wake it as normal by moving my mouse), but if the sleep is for some extended duration (not exactly sure, but at least within a couple of hours) then the only way to wake it is to use the power button.
    I've tried an SMC reset to no avail -- the problem still occurs.
    It's plugged into a power adapter and this is a screenshot of the settings page.
    This is a very annoying issue. I'm hoping someone can help?
    Thanks!
    Adam

    I managed to narrow down and reproduce the issue:
    It occurs when the 'turn display off after' time lapses. Eg, if I change the setting to 1 minute and wait for the display to turn off, the computer will *not* wake up without pressing the power button.
    Very strange. Hoping someone can provide some insight!
    Thanks,
    Adam

  • Can iMac not waking from sleep be caused be a corrupt file

    I have had my 27" iMac from July of 2011 (running Montain Lion, 8 GB RAM, 2TB hardrive, 3.4 GHz,Intel i7) for over a year and a half and ever since I bought it, it has had a problem waking from sleep.  I can hear the computer running, but when I click the mouse, keyboard, or power button, it stays asleep and I am forced to do a hard shut down.  Apple has been trying to fix the issue, but to no success.  They have replaced the hard drive, logic board, usb ports, RAM, mouse and keyboard, but it still happens.  They finally threw in the towel and are replacing the machine.  They offered to transfer all of our files (jpgs, mp3s, docs, videos, etc), but one thought occurred to me... what if the sleep issue is caused by a corrupt file?  I highly doubt that is the case, but wonder if any of the experts out here would know better than I.
    If we didin't have the data transfered, we would just keep it on an external hard drive instead.  But, I would assume that it wouldn't matter if the files were on internal vs. external because either way, the computer would access the files.  That being the case, if the sleep issue was caused by a corrupt file, the computer would still access it on the external and the sleep issue would resurface.
    So, 2 questions:
    Can a corrupt file cause the sleep issue?
    If it is true that a corrupt file can cause the sleep issue, would it matter if the corrupt file was accessed from an external drive vs. internal drive?
    Thanks so much!
    Chris

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Macbook pro not waking from sleep

    HELP! My macbook pro (2010) is not consistently waking from sleep. I will put it on sleep, then when I open the screen, it will not wake up. I have to press the power button to completely turn it off, then press it again to wake it up. An error message shows saying that it had not been properly shut down. Any ideas on how to correct this problem?

  • Macbook Pro Display not waking from sleew

    Alright so firstly I am aware of the ongoing issues with MacBook Pro's not waking up from sleep period, but that's not what is happening to me.
    I've got a 2.5 GHz MacBook Pro, the model that is still currently selling. It always wakes from sleep just fine, except sometimes the display stays sleeping. I know for a fact that the comp wakes from sleep because if I sleep it with say an itunes song running when I open it up again the song will automatically start playing again. However, sometimes the display never wakes up, and just stays dark.
    I have absolutely no clue either why sometimes the display wakes up fine and the other times it stays dark no matter what. Once it's dark, putting the comp back to sleep and waking it up again doesn't help either - the only thing I can do it shut it off and restart. Any given time that I wake the thing up, I give it about a 50/50 chance that it will wake up fine or the display will stay dark, and like I said before it seems to be totally random when it happens regardless of when I sleep it or what I am doing when I sleep it.
    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

    I'm not sure then. It could be one of four things: Hardware, firmware, software, or your PMU (Power Management Unit) which is a part of your computer's mother board that does exactly as it's named. It controls the flow of power in your computer and it turns things on and off like your airport card or your hard disks. It also plays a huge part in sleeping. So the PMU is my best bet. You can try resetting it to see if it helps. The article explains it better than I can. In the article they call it the SMC (System Management Controller) but its the same thing.

  • K9A2 Platinum - ATI4890 - Ocasionaly no Signal on startup, no post bios HELP plz

    Hi. I'm having some weird issues, it has only happened tree times in 2 months, no signal is displayed, monitor remains in standby mode. Then I hard reset it, and then every thing works fine. I have a MSI K9A2 Platinum motherboard with an AMD Phenom II 940 BE, all powered by a CoolerMaster Silent Pro 600w PSU. I haven't updated my motherboard bios yet, nor the vga bios.
    Driver is Catalyst 9.5 for Vista x64, it shows my 4890 like "HD 4800 Series". The card is conected via DVI to a DELL s2409W 24'' lcd.
    When it happens it does not show any video signal in my monitor, not even bios info, the monitor remains in STANDBY mode, i don't think drivers can cause that.
    The card power supply is connected through two PCI-E 6+2 Pins conectors directly to the PSU.
    I haven't updated my motherboard bios, this i could do, i know there are new updates for my motherboard. I have no floppy though, is there any way to update the bios via flash or making a booting CD?
    Also, i have 2x OCZ 2gb memory stick running at 1066 in slots 3 and 4, this could be a issue??
    Its a weid issue really, i can use the system normaly without problems right now, but this is still making me wonder whats was wrong those 3 times since i couldnt see any errors, cause there was no video.
    I hope you can help out here, thank you.

    Just came from work, and happened again, no signal, I couldnt hear the windows logon sound, so the bios is not posting.
    I'd updated my signature with my system specs.
    Also i cheked out my bios version with CPU-Z: V1.5
    Also heres my PSU specs
    It should be working fine with the card, it has 40A on the +12v line.
    I'm using the 3 and 4 memory slot from the board in dual channel, I'm gonna change it to the 1 and 2, to see what happens...
    Lastly, would you guys recomend me to upgrade the bios?

  • ASUS PA248Q Not waking from Sleep

    I just acquired a used iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2012) and decided to buy a nice PA248Q ASUS monitor to work with the system as a second display.  The monitor is connected via TB with a MDP to DP cable which is made by QVC.  The Monitor works fine until the Mac puts the displays to sleep.  Upon waking the PA248Q gives the "NO SIGNAL ON DISPLAYPORT" message and immediately goes back into power save mode.  If you use the soft power on/off switch to cycle the monitor then it is back.  This is annoying!
    I have seen several posts on Google and the net about this problem as the changeover to Mavericks was happening.  This is Yosemite (10.10.3) with all the latest updates and I am hoping there is a good fix for this issue. I do understand that TB is not exactly DP, but is compatible, and I definitely needed to not spend a great amount of money on the Monitor.
    Interested if anyone has ever gotten this problem resolved and specifically with this monitor.
    I have plans to purchase a new Mac Mini with two of these in the near future, so I am VERY interested in solving the issue.
    Thanks in advance for your advice and help.

    Replying to my own post. The problem seems to be found. Removing usb wires from the sonnet ports prior to sleep solves the problem. Leaving them in the sonnet ports the problem returns.
    I still don't know of a manual restart button for freezes. When the G4 is booted up the power button sleeps and wakes the computer.

  • MBP not waking from sleep and getting very hot

    When my Mac Book Pro 15 inch is left for a period of time greater than approximately an hour and plugged in it should automatically go into sleep/hibernate mode. Something happens during this period but I can hear the fan running heavily, the MBP is very hot and I can do nothing to wake it. The only option I have found is to hold the power button down for a few seconds to power the unit off then back on. When the MBP restarts I am greeted with the message "The computer was restarted after Mac OX X quit unexpectedly". I have also seen many kernel panics occurr on a regular basis. This is a new Mac Book Pro and was recently sent back to Apple for diagnosis. I was told it was my third party memory but upon instaling my original Mac memory the problem is STILL present.
    Anyone else seeing or heard of this type of behavior???

    Hi, I am having the sleep problem with my 17" MBP. When I shut the lid down and it goes to sleep mode for short periods it is ok but any period for longer than 1 hr it will not wake when I lift the lid or press any keys on the keypad. It was also turning itself on and going into sleep mode when I left it to charge overnight from a turned off state untill I sent it for repair. Now it just has the sleep problem, what I have noticed is that it does not play up when I start it up in Safe mode. I have just done the hardware test from the install disc and there were no problems, then I did the archive/Install bit and that did not solve it either. Ah well back on the phone tomorrow unless someone can shed any light!

  • AppleTV not waking from Network Airplay prompt

    Model MD199LL/A
    Software 7.0 (6897.6)
    Currently, the Apple TV no longer wakes from sleep with an AirPlay prompt.  I have to use the remote to wake it up before using AirPlay.
    AirPlay also disappears from my mac's menu bar while the AppleTV is asleep.  It's often blinking off and on since the update.  When it's not on my menu, the AppleTV won't respond to AirPlay requests.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    A few others have experienced something similar and switched sleep to never to avoid this happening.
    However since this only occurs in a handful of cases it is most likely an incorrect setting or other network problem that has become apparent with the new software.

  • Late 2008 Macbook Pro not waking from sleep

    I just go a new MacBook Pro, and occasionally (maybe once a day) after I shut the computer to put it in sleep mode, and walk around with it, It refuses to wake when I open the lid. I have disabled the "put hard disk to sleep" and using the smartsleep preference pain, have put the computer in "sleep only," but the problem still occurs. Whenever this happens, I have to restart my computer with the restart button.
    Message was edited by: Alex Bernstein

    Alex, do you have your preferences set to require a password after sleep or screensaver? Sometimes I have had issues with this dialog window not popping up. Also does the status light on the MBP glow constantly or fade in and out when you lift the lid up? If it is lit constantly and nothing is displayed that means the computer is on...what I do is just close the lid again and then wait for the light to fade in/out and re open, then it usually works.

  • "Failed to talk to init daemon" after waking from suspend

    I got this shitty poulsbo driver and I've been having this issue for some time now.
    When I close the laptop lid and complete the suspend/wake-up process more than once, it no longer suspends and cannot poweroff/reboot the machine at all. When I try to to do that I get:
    Failed to open /dev/initctl: No such device or address
    Failed to talk to init daemon.
    Running dmesg after the second failed suspend I get this. Somewhere between you'll notice there is a systemd error:

    I believe it's related to this kernel bug:

    If you need to reboot, try "reboot -f".

  • Not restarting from xp or bios

    Hello,
    I''m getting crazy here.
    first some specs.
    msi 865P neo-L
    p4 2.80E 800mhz 1mb cache HT
    Twinmos ddr pc3200 512MB dual channel(2x256)
    Aopen power supply FSP350-6PN(350W)
    Geforce 4200
    Creative Audigy
    Ok...
    I''ve always had this system running, except for the processor en the memory(before p4 2.4 533mhz and 512 ddr 266mhz).
    Recently bought a processor and memory to match the above specs.
    Formated my harddisk and installed a fresh copy of windows xp sp2 on it. No prolem untill it wants to do a restart. windows is closing fine but it stops and won''t reboot. After checking out the bios tried to save and exit my bios and then the same thing happens. It won''t restart......I dont know where this bug is coming from. Already flashed the bios, but no result. The system is shutting down correctly btw.
    Any help is welcome,
    Thanks.

    Still isn''t working.
    I''ve removed my soundcard and using the onboard. Tested my memory. flashed my bios and it is still not rebooting. Strange thing also......when i install win xp sp2 it doesn''t even go through the setup files of the new xp sp2 installation....
    I''ll throw away the mb...

  • Graphics corruption after waking from suspend

    The image above shows what it looks like. The good news is that there's a process that restores it back to normal: I go to display settings and rotate the view then choose to restore previous setting when asked. Then i restart gnome-shell and everything is clean again.
    The problem shows up consistently after suspend and sometimes when booting.
    Any advice here is appreciated.

    I am running a radeon x300 with the drivers xf86-video-ati 6.14.1-1 and ati-dri 7.10.2-2.

    That thread seems limited to nvidia cards and mine is ati. The downgrade of gnome-power-management suggested there did not work for me and I could not find the org.gnome.power-manager.lock-suspend option in gconf-editor.
    Please note that I had posted a similar problem last year which I solved by downgrading to older drivers but gnome3 does not work with these.

  • K9A2 Platinum-Won't boot from optical drives

    My problem is that I can't get my computer to boot from either optical drive.Both drives work; I can read and write from either drive in windows xp. In the boot order menu neither drive is shown as a boot from device.The boot sequence menu shows all hdd and usb devices but no optical drives.Both drives are recognized in the bios.I wanted to dual boot vista x64 but can't because it won't boot from drive.Any ideas?

  • K9A2 Platinum - RAM at 800 instead of 1066

    Thanks for the help previously, my machine is booting now.  However, I am getting BSoD that say 'MEMORY_MANAGEMENT' at random times when I had the RAM running at 1066 Mhz.  I changed the BIOS multiplier to 1:2 which gives me 800MHz DDR2 speed equivalency and now I am getting no beeps or BSoD.  This is not a huge deal but I just read somewhere that you get a reasonable performance increase with 1066 Mhz compared to 800 Mhz.  Any ideas how I can get the full speed of my RAM?

    I need some help here if anyone is able to help me I would appreciate it. I just upgraded to the Phenom II x2 (940) AM+2.  Everything is fine, but at this time I would like to move to PC8500 Ram from PC6400.  I am waiting for my new gskil 4G 1066 RAm.  It is supposed to run at 2.1v with timings of 5-5-5-15.  I am guessing my bios should auto sense the ram, but in the event that it does not I am not clear on what settings I need to change.  I noted that if i change the timings from 1:1 (settings for the 800, and it shows ram to be 800) to something like 1:3 66, it changes the ram to 1066.  Would this be the only setting I need to change, or do I need to change the other auto settings for the CAS etc to 5-5-5-5-15 and I guess which ones, there is a a large list of settings with many letters such as Trs etc.  It also appears that the voltage settings are on auto, but i dont seem to be able to change those even by hitting enter etc.  Sorry to sound so dumb, but I am just not sure here.  Thanks.
