Problem with sleep mode in Win 7
Posted: 28-Jul-2012 12:58
 
Hello Friends,

I have a great problem after Windows 7 updated itself. I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L505D. When I close the lid, it should automatically go to the sleep mode. Unfortunately, only the screen is black and the laptop is still running, I have to shut it down then switch on again. Is it a problem with the 'battery driver'?Please, help me :)

How to understand this?
Have you installed Windows updates or what?

Have you tried to rollback OS using system restore tool and check if the problem persists?

System restore.

Start > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > System restore.

Notebook can't enter into the sleep mode using FN+F3 key combination. The same thing is when I try to enter sleep mode after pressing start button->sleep mode. I have blank screen and the notebook is still working but I can't do anything. I have to switch it of using the power button.

Helpful
Before you continue to wait for solution and waste your time back-up all your important data and reinstall OS again using HDD recovery installation - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
After doing this you will have clean preinstalled and well working OS again.
The first thing you should do after OS installation is to disable automatic Windows update. Do it manually and install important updates only.

I don't know how, but the problem solved itself. Sleep mode is again working and I did nothing.. Maybe defragmentation helped.. Thank you very much for help :)
