T60 - issues when coming out of hibernatio​n without AC adapter

Hi,
I use XP Pro on my T60.
Standby mode has weird effects on it, so I use Hibernation.
Hibernation works pretty well (I wish it weren't so slow, but I have 3GB of RAM in there now), but if I go into Hibernation with the AC adapter plugged in and then go out of Hibernation without it (i.e. on battery), most of the time some part of Windows or the laptop is acting up.
The most obvious sign is that once this occurs I can no longer shut down Windows - it will usually not react to any Hibernation or Shutdown or Restart command.
If I open CMD and type "shutdown -f -r -t 0" (Force, Restart, Time 0 seconds - also without -r), it will at least close all programs and shut down as far as the Windows login screen. If I tell it again to shutdown here, it stops at an empty screen with my Desktop background color.
Other symptoms:
My mouse will move for about one second and then stop for about one second and repeat this pattern.
Networking may or may not work at all, and the network properties are sometimes not accessible.
If I force Explorer to shut down, it won't come back up by itself.
The last few times this happened I tried the following things to fix this:
-Forced all unnecessary processes to shut down
-Stopped all Services - two or three could not be stopped, but I can't remember which ones they were
-Used Process Explorer to find anything that used CPU
Also nothing unusual in the Event Log.
My system was recently updates with all the newest Lenovo updates, but I have had this issue ever since I got the laptop.
Nothing helped.
So I'm wondering if it could be a driver that crashes, or something like that.
I think it at least partially must have to do with power management since it only happens when I switch between battery and AC adapter while the laptop is in hibernation.
Any ideas of other things I could try?
Thanks!
Richard

Update:
I had my laptop running on the AC adapter all day.
Then I briefly unplugged it for 2 minutes to carry it to the conference room where I plugged it in again.
Later I unplugged it to bring it back to my desk.
As described in my original post, I was then unable to simply shut down my laptop - it did not shut down all the way, and I had to force it to turn off.
I hope someone here can help me with this, it's a real pain in the neck...
Thanks!

  • Network Issues When Coming Out of Sleep

    I purchased a 13-inch Macbook Pro about a month ago. I'm running OSX 10.6.4.
    Last night I started experiencing issues. Whenever I close my laptop, it goes to sleep fine. However, when I open it to begin using it again, it's unable to find my wireless network. It searches for a while, and then tells me my Airport is off. When I go to turn it on, the button will either not do anything, or the laptop will lock up and I'll need to hold down power to get it off, back on, then working again.
    Usually after a restart everything is fine again, however I have experienced a few random lock ups since this all began.
    Thanks for your time! Any help would be awesome.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Not sure if this is what's causing the issue but checking/adjusting this won't hurt.
    Open System Preferences/Network and select your normal/home location
    In the left hand column make sure Airport is at the top of the list and delete the other items listed that aren't used (you can drag items around to change order and use - to remove)
    Then click the Advanced button and in the window that pops open click the Airport Tab
    In Preferred Networks delete everything but your home network name
    Click "Remember networks this computer has joined"
    Uncheck "Disconnect when logging out"
    Click OK to close that window
    Click Apply bottom left then close the panel
    Fingers crossed it should now see and join your home network on waking, sometimes it can take 30 seconds or so for me ...

  • Issue when coming out of vibrate mode

    Hello all,
    This has happened a couple of times now with my 3GS. I put my iphone on charge and selected silent vibrate mode with the side switch. In the morning, the battery was at 99% and even though I had selected ringing mode with the side switch, the phone remained in silent (vibrate) mode. I got a text, it vibrated with no message alert. I tried typing a text and the keyboard didn't make the click sound on each key press. I rebooted the phone and all was back to normal including the battery indicator, now at 100%...???
    Has anyone else experienced this? I'm not too bothered if it occasionally needs a reboot but I am curious to see if its a firmware bug?
    My iphone is running the latest release and is from Orange UK - Locked.
    Thanks

    Though it's not normal... it doesn't hurt to do a hard reset every now and then...
    To try to resolve I'd suggest a full restore using "set up as new iPhone" this will take all the bugs out that could be causing the issue...

  • 7.3.2.6 crashes when coming out of standby mode

    Has anyone else seen this problem with iTunes 7.3.2.6?
    It crashes when coming out of standby mode. There is an error report I can send to Microsoft, but since it's an Apple program, I never send it.
    Using standby was OK with iTunes 7.2.

    Okay. Let's try getting a fresh one through to Roy.
    If the log has been "live" for a while, info about every crash of any description will have been being added to it (with my Morrowind crashing on a daily basis, i once found a DrWatson log on belladonna that was over a GB in size). So it'll be easier for him to work through a log with just one crash on it.
    Will run through my standard instructions just so i don't forget anything. (Sorry, I know you're up to speed on this sort of thing, no offense meant.)
    Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
    drwtsn32 -i
    And hit return.
    This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
    prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
    Generate the crash, collect the crash log, and send it as an attachment to this email address: [email protected]
    In the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
    - A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
    - The username you are using in the thread
    - The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
    - the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs)
    - A concise description of the issue you are seeing
    - The exact text of the error message you are seeing

  • IMac hangs on spinning color wheel when coming out of screen saver

    Since updating to the latest version 10.5.5 my iMac hangs when coming out of screen saver mode with the spinning color wheel and I have to do a hard reboot.
    I did some searching and it looks like this was also a problem back with and earlier version of 10.5
    I use the pictures screen saver.
    Anyone else have this problem since the last update??

    Still compared to the Windows PC's I have around that I have to try and maintain once a day I think the Mac is a killer machine....
    You should attend to your iMac. Even the best machines need periodic attention.
    Like an iceberg, most of Leopard is "under the ocean" or as we say, "under the hood." There is an extremely powerful BSD OS down there and it is really that, not Leopard per se, that need an occasional "tweak."
    Actually there are automatic routines that do much of the hidden maintenance but permissions repair is not one of them.
    Again, you do not need to run permissions repair every day. Not even every month, but it's best to do it anytime you install new software - before and after installing the software.
    Some, but not all of the issues you see here are the result of not maintaining the computer.

  • Why does my MAC sometimes crash when coming out of sleep mode?

    My mac freezea sometimes when coming out of sleep mode, and occasionally the screen will go black. At other times I will be using the MAC and it will just freeze. The only way to get out of it is to kill power and reboot. It seems to be happening more frequently.
    It was suggested that I fix permissions and start in sleep mode. This has helped in the past, and I am going to do it again now. I also recently upgraded to 10.6.8, and after that the crashes were fewer, but now they are increasing again.
    I am including a log of the recent crash a few minutes ago.

    Okay thanks, but I am a newbie who is not a very tech kind of a person. The only periphals I have are a kodak camera dock, a Canon 310 copier/fax/scanner and a pair of altec speakers. How do I determine  if they all have drivers for my MAC? They all seem to work okay, if that is a sign, though the Kodak camera Dock is a bit slow. How also do I determine if they are Apple energy compatible? With each of these peripherals, do I simply disconnect them from my MAC one at a time to see if there improvement?

  • E9220y hangs when coming out of sleep mode

    My new HP Elite e9220y hangs when coming out of sleep mode-  When I 'touch a key' or move mouse, power switch on computer turns from yellow to blue, but monitor remains black.  Have to force off, and restart.  Adjusted power management to 'never' sleep but I was hoping for a more elegant solution.

    Southmike, I'm glad I could help you out.  When I tried using the settings you stated, it didn't help me resume from standby.  However, I did finally get standby to work by first resetting the BIOS to default, and then setting the Power Management to:
    ACPI Standby: S3
    Call VGA BIOS (no idea what this is): Enable
    USB Wakeup: Enable
    Power Management/APM: Disable
    And, I also disabled a few other things I dont use like onboard Audio and RAID and voila, now WinXP can go into standby and resume from it piece of cake.

  • Small delay when coming out of standby

    I have noticed that when my iphone 4 goes into standby +on its own+, and I press the home button, there is a short delay of approximately 2 seconds for it to get out of standby. However, when I put it on standby (by pressing the power button), and then press the home button, it gets out of standby almost instantly.
    Is this normal? Does the iphone just need time to "warm up" when coming from sleep mode, and that's what is causing the small delay?
    By the way, my iphone is completely stock - not even one app. on it, and only a few minor settings changed.

    I have the exact same issue. Exact same setup -- no additional apps.. nothing running in the background. My wife also got her iphone 4 at the same time and also has this "issue".. if in fact it is an issue at all...
    Having searched online, it sounds like it is fairly common and more than likely something that can/will be resolved with a future software update...
    That being said, I'll still feel better the more I hear of others experiencing the same thing...

  • IPhone reboots when coming out of low power mode

    I have a consistent reboot coming out of sleep mode.
    If I have wifi enabled and put the phone to sleep for a longer period of ( time > 10 min ) the phone will reboot when I wake it. This is with only waking it up and not going to any particular application.
    If wifi is disabled the the phone doesn't reboot on wake.
    If the sleep period is short the phone doesn't reboot

    I had a similar issue. I would reboot when I tried just to wake it up. It would also power back up (with logo) if I received a text message or email, vibrate or ding, then when it went back to sleep it would power down after a few minutes. My wifi was always turned off at the time.
    I took it to the Genius Bar on Saturday and they replaced it, but my service guy said he'd never seen that before.
    What really irritates me is my replacement iPhone has the negative black issue on pics and video, so now I want to take THIS one back as well.

  • Battery - Does the iPod run off the battery when coming out of 'deep sleep'

    Hi,
    I was listening to my ipod yesterday and it ran completely out of battery. No worries - I thought I would just charge it up. I am travelling right now and the only way of charging it is by docking it in some speakers. I did so and it started up as normal, showing the apple logo. Then the screen went brighter, as normal, then it just cuts out. I thought maybe its just the battery, so I left it for a couple of hours and tried again - same thing happened.
    When it is coming out of the 'deep sleep' is it running of the power of the battery - even when it is on charge? It appears like it needs to turn itself on - and THEN charge. If this is correct it is a pretty poor design fault. Can any one help me with this?
    Could it be that its not getting enough power through the speakers?
    Thanks,
    Phil

  • Satellite A105-S4284 gets Blue Screen of Death when coming out of standby

    MySatellite A105-S4284 runnings Windows XP gets a BSOD after coming out of standby or hibernation. With standby, I'll see the login screen where I enter my password, and then it may show the desktop background or even the open app (Outlook or Word, typically) for a second, afterwhich the BSOC appears. For weeks I was getting a black screen sporadically after standby. Researched the problem and saw recommendations to update BIOS. So I updated the BIOS to the latest version, and then I started getting blue screens of death rather than a black screen. Thought the problem was McAfee, because I'd get crashes right after McAfee became active in the background, sometimes without going into standby. Cancelled McAfee, took it off with the cleaner, used Avast instead, and that seemed to help. But then BSODs came back. I uninstalled non-essential software, clearned registry with CC Cleaner, freed up more HD space and defragged, ran SpyBot, etc - but I still get the BSOD almost every time I go into standby or hibernate. 
    The stop messages on the BSOD don't show a driver. and all begin with 0x0000007E (0x000000C5, ... and then differ after that.  One recent one followed with 0x804E13D5, 0xAA6B9B8C, 0xAA6B9888). Does that mean anything?
    I've installed Microsoft's debugging tools to look at the dumps after a BSOD. Here is output for two recent crashes. Doesn't point to a driver. NTKRMLMP.exe is what crashes - do I need to replace that from the I386 folder somehow? I did have my Matsu**bleep**a DVD-CD drive suddenly quit a time or two until the computer was restarted. Should I reinstall the DVD driver? Or the graphics driver? Worried that I might break something by doing that.

    In safe mode it is not possible to standby. That is disabled. Tried to make it possible with Toshiba's power control service, but it is not available. 
    In a new account, the BSOD still occurs. I created a new account, logged out of my account, and went to the new one. Tried standby. It came out of standby for a second and then had the blue screen of death. 
    In checking the event manager, I seen errors shortly before crashes sometimes that involve the CD.
    So I went to Toshiba.com and downloaded the DVD RAM driver and ran it, reinstalling the driver, and then restarted.  I also saw that there was C-Dilla driver in my drivers. I uninstalled the SafeCast program that I think is associated with C-Dilla, moved the C-Dilla driver out of the drivers to a distant folder, unchecked C-Dilla in MSCONFIG so it won't load (it was still there after removing SafeCast), and then reinstarted. So with a new DVD Ram driver and neutering, I hope, of C-Dilla, I tried things again and the system appeared to be crash free - better than it had been. But then a crash occurred - BSOD - and upon restart, the CD locked up, and crashed again. 
    After restarting, there was a new dialog that popped up after Windows launched indicating that there had been an error with SONIC DLA. Before the crash, there was an event n the event viewer:
    My last error comes from the Plug and Play Manager:
    The device 'MAT**bleep**A DVD-RAM UJ-841S' (IDE\CdRomMAT**bleep**A_DVD-RAM_UJ-841S________________1.60____\5&226f6cf2&0&0.0.0) disappeared from the system without first being prepared for removal.
    Hmmm. So things are still vulnerable. Any ideas? Buy new CD drive? Or new computer?

  • Window outstretches when coming out of sleep mode...

    As the thread title implies, I have a problem in Photoshop Elements 6.0 that I found came with my Wacom Bamboo Pen Tablet...
    As of recently, whenever I put the computer to sleep mode I boot the system back up and my right hand panels are mostly out of view. Though they are mildly visible they are still basically unsable.
    I've noticed that this only seems to happen when I LOG OUT and go to sleep.
    If it will help with the troubleshooting: I am using a HP 2159 monitor which I just got on Saturday March 6, 2010. But please note that nothing else on the desktop is effected by this issue, just Photoshop Elements 6.0.

    I found a solution. Simply press Escape and it refits itself to the screen resolution whatever that may be.

  • Solution found for T400 that will not shutdown after coming out of hibernatio​n or sleep mode

    I found out by removing the ThinkPad manager driver (not the ThinkPad power manager), this solves the problem when the T400 goes into Hibernation or standby/sleep mode, but does not completely shut down afterwards.
    Apparently there's some kind of conflict with Windows power manager version and Lenovo's ThinkPad manager driver.  I left the ThinkPad manager utility as is and that seems to work fine with Win7
    Hope this helps for those who have the same issue.

    Update:
    I had my laptop running on the AC adapter all day.
    Then I briefly unplugged it for 2 minutes to carry it to the conference room where I plugged it in again.
    Later I unplugged it to bring it back to my desk.
    As described in my original post, I was then unable to simply shut down my laptop - it did not shut down all the way, and I had to force it to turn off.
    I hope someone here can help me with this, it's a real pain in the neck...
    Thanks!

    I noticed with the iCal in Lion that overlapping events automatically bring the shortest event to the front, the "longer" event behind it being only viewable through the other events. This same prioritisation (ie by shorter duration) is given regardl
