For information....
W7-64bits (Home) cannot return from sleep mode on the following config
B85-G43 with I5-4570 + MSI GTX750 Gaming 1MB + SSD crucial
After a complete successfull installation of W7 with all the updates and the drivers etc that when smoothly, I stepped away and when I came back the pc was in sleep mode.
It caused severe blackscreen of the death (not the blue screen) . With black screen, I meaning : it boots then the animated Windows boot animation shows up then pfew .. black and "freeze" nothing to escape to this state but to power down from the hardware power button.... then the windows recovery menu takes over.
Unsure How I did but I eventually had to reinstall the hole thing....
I probably messed up somewhere.
Well now I have disabled the sleep mode. Not a fix but at least erradicate the context from which the problem would be triggered.

Try the newest intel drivers for chipset, sata (both windows and intel rst), flash your mobo bios to the latest bios. And consider disabling sleep/hibernation, with ssds today booting takes very little time.

Weird...I found the Z87-G45 works with sleep / hibernate, so you most likely have a driver/setting issue. Mine has it's own oddity...instead of relying upon the keyboard to return from sleep, it uses the case power switch. There's probably a way to change this, but I didn't track it down and I've become used to it

To my knowledge they were the latest drivers and the bios was uptodate.Abula wrote:Try the newest intel drivers for chipset, sata (both windows and intel rst), flash your mobo bios to the latest bios.
