Everytime i go away for 1-2 hrs and i come back when vista is on sleep i cant wake it up.. everything is frozen , mouse keyboard, it pisses me off. the only way to get out of it is to turn it off. If i click on the button once, ill see my screen again but my mouse and keyboard still wont work so i have to click on it again. Also, i love vista, a new problem has occur, now from time to time my screen decides to black out for a sec then come back then black out as it wishes. Can anyone help me please? i never Ever had any problems with Xp. I tryed looking online , but they all speak in a foreign language. Thanks!

Is it a new installation of Vista? Is your computer a laptop or a desktop? Did you buy the computer pre-built from a shop/store or upgrade an existing computer (ie windows XP upgraded to Vista)

Well i bought the cd around 1 year ago , it didnt show any problems back then, well.. it was kinda slow, i must of formatted twice or thrice. The only thing i remember adding is a 1 GO DDR2, its a desktop and i bought it at a shop, the only thing i kept from my old pc was a hard drive, everything else was new, but my computer is 3 year old thats when i had XP installed, if you need any more info let me know! ty

Hi Slix122

So youve been using vista for about a year, reformatted a few times during the time youve had it? Have you been updating your drivers yourself?
I find alot of problems are related to drivers and how they are installed, especially if you have installed newer drivers over older ones without removing them first. This is especially true of graphics drivers. I have a feeling yours is related to graphics drivers based on the screen going black and coming on again. What are you system specs?

Yea i was updating the drivers myself, i dont really know where they are tho, i dont know if it has anything to do with the flashing screen but i remember there being an update for Nvidia , was 103 mb and it didnt start so i clicked escape, 2 minutes later i saw my screen flashing, must of been a coincidence. But do you think that the way i installed my drivers affected the vista sleep mode too ?
Sorry about this, i dont really know a system spec is? like my video card name , mother board, how much memory i have and everything? is there a way to see it from my computer ,or do i have to open up my computer too see all the information? thanks!

A second choice would be to download a tool like Belarc Advisor or What's Running. Both are free tools and give you alot of information including (Belarc) if you are missing updates. You can put a shortcut on your desktop to run it every so often.

I wont copy paste the entire log because i have like 6 pages, i will try to put all the info that matters.

Btwn i really appreciate your help!

Hmm nope that didnt fix it 5 Hrs ago, i left my computer open and i went to work, when i came back i thought that someone closed my computer because it didnt make any sounds at all! So i clicked on the power button and right after that my screen opened and the page that i was on was still there, It was showing the time 22:30 45 seconds and i was able to see the seconds go up and i could see the time on windows worked too but i wasnt able to use my keyboard or my mouse. With that conclusion, i dont know how but somehow, when i left my computer open for too long all of my ports seem to stop working but my computer is still functionning( by the way the flashing screen still happen , it seems to do that the first minute of when i start my computer.)
