Problem to come back from sleep mode in Lenovo Thinkpad T400 using Windows XP

Problem to come back from sleep mode in Lenovo Thinkpad T400 using Windows XP. Each time closing the T400 lid and try to make the laptop into a sleep mode for some time, it does not properly come out of sleep mode. Login screen is able to see when opening the lid for the first time, but it only seen for a while before then a black screen on T400 Thinkpad appears. Sometime the hard drive activity can be shown also. And then, to come back I had only one option to hard re-boot.
I tried Fn+F4 and power button once to come back but no use.
Please provide me some solution for this?
Thanks in Advance.

HP Envy Laptop will not Wake up from Sleep Mode with Windows 10

The reason I decided to go back to windows 8 was because since upgrading to Windows 10, when my computer goes into sleep mode, I cannot wake it up. I have to press and hold the power button to shut it done and restart. Even if I close my laptop, and reopen the lid, it wont start back up and I have to press and hold the power button and shut it down and restart. After trying to restore my HP Envy Laptop from Windows 10 to Windows 8, it got stuck in a Repair PC Loop and I could not even access the desktop, I tried the restore option to an earlier date and that failed and all the repair options also failed. The last option I had was to do a full PC Refresh, and that one worked. It took about an hour but no data was lost, and only a few of my downloaded apps were removed. An html url was left on the desktop that showed a list of all the apps that were removed. So all I did was download those back and now im back up and running Windows 8. I want to re-download Windows 10, does anyone have a fix for this issue?

Hello mistyb1,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with the printer not waking up from Sleep Mode.
I do have a few suggestions that we can try.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
Once you have the printer connected to the wall outlet, please use the ON/OFF button to do a proper power cycle. This will do a Semi power reset on the printer.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Thanks for your time.

Touchsmart Iq506t Windows 7, Unable to acess s-video input from windows media center.

System: Hp Touchsmart IQ506T
Windows 7
Avermedia (A327) Hybrid mini Pcie Tv Tuner (NTSC/ATSC)
I purchase this system used without an operating system. I installed windows 7 and downloaded the drivers from Hp. All drivers are installed properly and the Avermedia (A327) mini card driver can be seen in device manager.
Yet, the A327 tv tuner will not give me access to the s-video input. I can get tv thru the rf connection but I want to use the s-video because it has a cleaner signal.
Any information about the s-video port will be appreciated..
Thank you..

Hi Cnmarsh,
I understand you are having an issue with the Touchsmart Iq506t with Windows 7, unable to access s-video input from Windows Media Center.
I read from your post that drivers are installed properly and the Aver media mini card drivers are seen in device manager.
I was wondering if the any of the drivers in Device Manager have a Yellow caution?
Also, is the Touchsmart Iq506t software all up to date?
You could try to download and run HP PC Hardware Diagnostics tool with this link.

Well, the above two links have the problem similar to mine but not exactly. In first one there is a problem with network manager - that it is unable to restart after coming from sleep mode while that is not a problem in my case and I tried all the solutions provided in the second link, but didn't work.
What I figured is when I execute '#pm-suspend' and then close the lid. Then, after I open the lid I wireless works fine. 'pm-suspend' is not invoked if I close the lid. So I needed to invoke the above command when an acpi event is generated when I close the lid. So here is what I added in the /etc/acpi/handler.sh file
button/lid)
case "$3" in
close)
(sudo /usr/sbin/pm-suspend) #added
open)
This works fine for now. Still, I don't know why this solution works - Why executing pm-suspend solves my problem?

I'm new to the MAC world. I turned my computer on from 'sleep' mode, and a window was up stating that the IOS disk was full; asked me to force quit, then it just froze. It's been 2 hours. Help! I'm worried about losing photos/videos of my children. Thx!

Im not sure if there's something special I need to do once I turn it back on; in the meantime, its still on... which I'm afraid the picture on the screen will burn into the screen. Does that happen on iMac's? Thx!

Try a hard reset. ( holding Power til it restarts)
Once to your desktop. Click the Apple icon >> About this mac >> More info>> Storage
Once you see what you have the most of. Try to see what you can delete.
Open up any folder>>all files>> or buy an external to store more data.
Once deleting make sure you empty your trash.
If you are new and its a new computer, you might need to bring it to a store for further assistence.

Laptop won't awake from sleep mode

Toshiba PSCBLU-01L003
I've had this laptop for a few months, and rarely move it from my office desk. When I leave it in active mode, the screen will eventually go dark and the computer will awaken when I touch the keyboard.
However, if I close the lid, or lock the screen, the computer will not awaken from sleep mode. I get a blank screen that the only remedy is to remove the laptop from the power cord, and remove the battery to restart.
All drivers and software are up to date I keep them updated.
Any suggestions, would be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Then I would change that setting to something else, click Save Changes and restart the computer. Then I would go back and change the setting back to Sleep, Save changes and restart again and see if that cures it.

Hi,
Problem with my PC lock screen freezes on wake up from sleep mode (active control center)
When in sleep mode while using the control center on Windows, wake-up, freezes the lock screen.
So, turn off the power. Then after about 3 seconds long, starts up automatically. And also freezes the lock screen.
So, turn off the main power wait a while and it recovers.
If not running the utility control center, no problem.

Sometimes when I open my laptop back from sleep, I get a black screen with the cursor showing.

Recently I've been getting this weird problem where my macbook air will show a black screen with only the cursor visible that I can move around but nothing else can be done to get to the desktop. The only way is to close the lid and wait for around 10 or more seconds and then open the lid again to bring the laptop back from sleep and hope that the laptop goes to the lock screen and then to the desktop. This works often but sometimes the only solution seems to be to restart the laptop. This also happens when I tilt the lid to the point where it is almost closed and when I tilt it back the screen presents the above state. Theis has been happening often now and it is almost impossible for the above not to happen atleast 2 to 3 times a day. iThis is a relatively new problem that has been occuring since the past two weeks or so and never happened to me on my Macbook Pro 15 2011. My current system is a Macbook Air 11" 2013 Haswell 1.3 Ghz 4GB RAM 256 GB SSD. Now I dont want to have to send in my laptop if I dont have to if there is a way I can solve this myself. Anybody else have this problem?

Hello tseten,
I would be concerned too if my MacBook Air was not waking from sleep appropriately. For an issue like this, I recommend resetting your System Management Controller (SMC) and NVRAM.
Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Yesterday, when I brought my laptop back from sleep, I tried to check my e-mail with the Mail app like I always do. But there was the lightning bolt sign next to the inbox, and the pop-up asked me to input my password, which didn't work. It says mail.mac.

Yesterday, when I brought my laptop back from sleep, I tried to check my e-mail with the Mail app like I always do. But there was the lightning bolt sign next to the inbox, and the pop-up asked me to input my password, which didn't work. It says mail.mac.com has rejected my password. The password is correct (I'm able to check my e-mail through my browser at me.com), but for some reason Mail keeps on rejecting it. I usually don't have to input my password at all in Mail. Any clue how to fix this? I haven't changed anything at all on my laptop.

I did change my apple ID password though...

Firefox crashes windows 7 when recovering from sleep mode

Similar to the following:
http://support.mozilla.com/pl/forum/1/627872?s=window+7+crash&as=s
but not sure whether it depends on pages that are currently opened.
Sometimes, when recovering from sleep mode on win7 (with only Firefox and VS2008 running), win7 crashes. What's important - It doesn't happen always, but still, it's annoying (Firefox starts with startpage only).
I've been noticing this issue on different Firefox versions from Firefox 3.5 to 3.6.6.

Same exactly problem here, very annoying when the computer goes to sleep mode and then Firefox locks up.

WIndows 10 Not recovering from Sleep mode. Hard resetting every time.

I have a HP Pavilion g6-2320tx Notebook PC with WIndows 10. Everytime I put the Notebook on Sleep mode, it gets hard reset next time i open the lid. I have tried upgrading the Graphics driver from Device settings and have looked for updates for all other driver suing HP support assistant. Problem still exists. Anyone with a solution? Please help.

Hello ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your and issues with a BSOD and the error message is CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED on your HP Pavilion g6-1b60us Notebook. I recommend to restore the BIOS defaults.You could restore the BIOS with this document selecting the reloading the BIOS default settings.You could try using the Windows Update Troubleshooting tool to fix the problem. Here is a document that shows how to update drivers that are not working correctly with Windows 10. I hope this fixes thing for you, please let me know. Thanks.

Windows wont wake up from sleep mode.

I have a Macbook Pro (7,1) running OS X Lion(10.7.2). This week, I installed Windows 7 Professional using bootcamp 4.0. Everything works great, except waking from sleep mode. I searched various forums, reset PRAM parameters but the issue persists. Now, everytime windows goes to sleep, I have to hardboot by holding the power button. Windows restarts saying the shutdown didnt happen properly. Pl.help.

I came across these two useful links. The problem is not gone but is less frequent now.
http://www.wintellect.com/CS/blogs/jrobbins/archive/2009/11/16/fixing-a-nasty-wi ndows-7-mac-pro-sleep-and-hibernation-problem.aspx
http://www.troublefixers.com/macbook-does-not-hibernate-sleep-in-windows-7-insta lled-in-dual-boot-with-bootcamp/
John Robbin's solution of resetting PRAM/NVRAM addressed the problem but only temporarily in my case. The problem would recur in an hour.
Abhishek's blog address the opposite problem, but his solution of not having any programs in windows start up helps. I removed skype from the startup.
I also started using Parallels to bring up the bootcamp windows and that too provided a workaround.
Looking for a cleaner solution.
