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.

IPod Touch shuts off after being locked 4 a while

Hello, My iPod touch 4th generation will shut off after being locked. Sometimes when I lock it for 3 minutes it'll shut off I will click the sleep/wake button or home button and it'll do nothing, So I have to reset it by holding sleep/wake button for 30 seconds or something. One time I set a alarm for 3 minutes and it went off and it showed on the iPod's screen and froze! What I did was: settings, general, auto-lock and put to never because if I'll let it lock for more than 3 or 5 minutes it'll shut off. Any one know a reason this might be happening?
Thanks for reading

Try:
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days.

Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days due to power cable breaking. I got a new cable and it still will not charge. Is my phone broken in any way? What can I do to fix this?

Hey TalkBack12,
These are the recommended troubleshooting steps I found for when your battery does not charge:
Battery does not charge
Verify that the outlet being used is working.
Try another USB power adapter if available.
If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
Try another USB cable if available.

Since you got a new cable, I would concentrate on trying a cable other than the new one.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
Sincerely,

The phone "beeps" only if "Play Sound" is ON and after clicking "Send" (even if no message). Just locating the phone doesn't make it beep.

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!

Windows 7 won't boot after hard shut down

Earlier today while in Windows and using Steam, Windows locked up. I gave it about 30 minutes to see if it would unlock, but when it wouldn't I decided to do a hard shut off. Now when I try to boot to Windows, I'm able to select the windows disk, get to the blinking cursor that is usually right before the Windows 7 loading screen, but after the cursor the screen just stays black forever.
I'm wondering if there is any way to try to fix this without having to reformat. Also, if reformatting is the only option, have people found that their original Windows 7 keys are reusable? I know that they key gets locked to a machine, but I don't know if it being a Mac machine has any effect on that.
Thank you for the help.
Also I didn't see an appropriate forum category for this. If one is more fitting than this one, I apologize.

Retail version is not locked to one machine, and can be reinstalled multiple times.
Your first thing would be to boot from Windows 7 DVD and let it attempt a repair. Not that different from Mac OS. There is also Safe Boot, chkdsk, uninstall programs and drivers, and of course you might want to install CCleaner and use that to keep temp files to a minimum and your system running smoothly.
But instituting a backup strategy should be one of the first things to do after getting it installed and updated.

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

Windows 7 Won't Boot After Nvidia Driver Installed, MSI Gaming N770

Hi I just bought the MSI Gaming N770 2gb and after installing the nvidia drivers, Windows 7 will not boot after my motherboard POSTs.
I bought this to replace an AMD card. I uninstalled all the AMD drivers before putting in the MSI card. I've also run the Display Driver Uninstaller in Safe Mode and everything.
After a few hours of research, I finally came across a thread about flashing a vbios, and something about these cards not working with motherboards with UEFI bios.
I'm using a P8Z77-I Deluxe mini-itx board, with a Rosewill 630W psu.
I have both 6+2 PCI pins plugged into the two 8pin power ports on the GPU.
Is this an issue that can be fixed with turning off secure boot? or by flashing a vbios onto the card? Or is the card a dud? Or do I have to re-install Windows.
If the vbios is required, are there instructions on how to flash it? I have no idea how to flash a BIOS. Thank you!!

Had to update BIOS. All fixed!!!!

System won't resume after hibernate Yoga 11 (RT)

I recently bought a Lenovo Yoga 11 with Windows RT and while I like it, I have had an issue of when it goes into hibernate mode after not being used for awhile, the power button and no other button will turn it back on. The battery is fully charged and the Capslock light button stays on. I have to do a hard reboot to get it back to working. Is there something that I've overlooked that is simple or is there something else I need to do to fix this issue? Thanks for the help!

Do anybody have any idea what could be wrong?
As I write before everything is up-to-date. In my oopinion it can be a HDD problem, but all test I made showed it's ok. I see Resume sign and after that blinking '_' i top left corner. Something must be wrong when Win reads hiberfile. I have no other HDD to check it. O_o

Vista 64-bit Won't Update after Hard Drive Replacement

My daughter has a Satellite L305-S5945 laptop (Model Number: PSLB8U-107071). Running Vista 64-bit SP1. She got a message that Windows detected a problem with the hard drive. After I ran the usual virus scans (no threats or malware detected) and chkdsk route, we were still getting the message. I did a reformat and Windows re-install and still got the message. The old drive was a Toshiba MK1655GSX.
I decided to replace it with a new drive, a Toshiba MK3259GSX. Using the same recovery disks that were created off the old drive, I reinstalled Vista 64-bit SP1 on to the new drive. Windows loaded fine, recognized the new drive, and then recovered all the Toshiba drivers via the recovery disks.
ISSUES:
1) As soon as it released control back to me, I immediately went to Windows Update to begin the downloads of all the updates and security fixes. However, Windows Update remained red and informed that Windows could not update. Then it gave me a error code: 8024A000. It will not check to see if I need updates.
2) I deleted the pre-installed Norton 60-day trial product (first with Windows uninstaller, then used Norton Removal Tool for all the little pesty registry entries) and downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials. After going through a few screens of the SE installation, I got a message that installation had failed, and gave me an error code of 0x80070643.
3) For fun, I removed the new hard drive, replaced with the old failing drive. Still got the message about the hd problem, but had no problem updating Windows or running SE.
4) On the new drive, in glancing through the WindowsUpdate log, I'm seeing a LOT of 0xc8000247 errors (relating to datastore, getservicelist, queryregisteredprovider, etc.)
I am assuming-perhaps incorrectly-that all these errors are related? Other than the updates, Vista is working fine on the new drive.
Any ideas?

Can you give us more details about that situation, Mike? A picture would help. You can attach a small one by adding the .txt extension to the file name as I have done here.
In the meantime, try resetting Windows Update.

Windows Vista won't connect after security change

I have an AirPort Extreme base station, to which we connect using an iMac, PowerBook G4 and a Windows Vista laptop. I used to have it set to WEP, but changed it to WPA for the increased security. After the change, my PowerBook and iMac are connecting just fine, but my wife's Vista machine has been nothing but headaches. It will sometimes connect, after a bit of fighting with it, but not reliably or quickly. At the moment, it says that it is connected with local and internet access, but I can't actually access anything on the internet, and diagnosing the problem in Vista reports that a wireless network cannot be found (despite the fact that it simultaneously reports that it is connected to one).
I know squat about Windows -- I'm a Mac guy. Anybody know how to help me fix this?
Thanks in advance!

No answers, but the problem seems to have disappeared. Man, I'm starting to realize how fortunate I am to have been using Macs for the last 23 years. I think Vista is going to be a very good thing for Apple! There's nothing like actually using Vista to make one want to flee screaming and never look back...
