| | Vista does not recover properly after sleep in Dell E1505 Hi! I'm running Vista Ultimate on a Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop and a ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 video card. When it goes into sleep mode, I actually doesn't recover properly. Once I flip the lid open, it just boots all over again, restores Windows and takes a very long time to do so, almost 3-5 minutes, instead of taking "less than 3 seconds" as some people claim. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've already tried with both ATI and Windows drivers for this video card, including the windows update version. Thanks in advance! -- sorcerer233 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sorcerer233's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=24656 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=728931 http://forums.techarena.in |

My E1505 with the X1400 wakes in about 3-5 seconds using Vista Business... |

| | Re: Vista does not recover properly after sleep in Dell E1505 Hi Dave, thanks for your reply. I've already checked the default settings and the closed lid I've set it to "Sleep", but it still happens, as if it were hibernating instead... -- sorcerer233 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sorcerer233's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=24656 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=728931 http://forums.techarena.in |

| | Re: Vista does not recover properly after sleep in Dell E1505 Hi Larry, thanks for your reply. I've checked the power settings for the Sleep profile, and it is ok, it should be working, yet it doesn't.. Computer 'seems' to go into sleep, the power led keeps turning on and off, and when I open the lid, it's as if I had rebooted it and takes ages to go back into Vista. I have the latest BIOS, also, so it's got to be something else... Thanks.. -- sorcerer233 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sorcerer233's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=24656 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=728931 http://forums.techarena.in |

| | Re: Vista does not recover properly after sleep in Dell E1505 From what you describe it sounds like it is going into Hibernate instead of Sleep/Standby or possibly a hybrid hibernate/sleep mode. Try this: 1. Click the Start pearl. 2. Click All Programs. Then click Accessories. 3. Right-click Command Prompt and choose "Run as administrator". 4. At the prompt, type *powercfg -h on* and press <Enter>. 5. If the Power Options window is still open, close it and re-open it. Check to make sure the Hibernation option is there, and disable it. If it is already disabled try enabling it, restarting the system, then disabling it again (on the off chance the registry settings are not all in sync with each other).
