My computer used to go to sleep but recently I've changed some settings and downloaded some new things and now everytime it goes to sleep it immediately wakes back up. Last night when it did hibernate I could not get the computer to come back on. I had to take the battery out of my laptop and put it back in to get it to start.
The only way I can get my computer to hibernate now is to lock my computer first.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? I turned off the sidebar, and have closed all programs and that doesn't help. There was something I found online last night about the network card and now allowing it to wake the computer. That's already been done (sorry I'm not a computer person lol this probably makes no sense to you).
Any help would be great.
I don't have a mouse either..someone had mention that was the problem when I was looking around last night.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I changed to some of the recommended settings for hibernation and now my computer hibernates without having to lock it first, and it wakes back up afterwards :-) thanks for your help!
