5672 - out of standby issue

Occasionally--not every time--when coming out of standby my machine has a hard time waking up (sluggish, takes a minute or two as the screen refreshes one piece of a window at a time... like it's out of ram or something) and switches to 1024x768 for no apparent reason. Then I have to reboot because the system is basically unresponsive. Don't suppose anyone else has had this problem?

5672, x1600, 2gb... not running much in the background except NHC. I keep it on a cooler and notice that the mb temp is about 18C when it wakes up. I think I was having this problem with hibernate also, so I turned it off completely, but that obviously didn't help.

 

To me there are 2 things that might cause what you described. I know with my older acer when the hard drive needed to be defragged it became very sluggish when it returned from hibernation and once I did removed the fragmentation the problem would go away (this worked for me don't know if this could be your problem as well).

Also problems with power management in windows is often a Bios problem, do you have the latest Acer Bios and drivers for your notebook?

You said you have 2Gb of ram so I doubt that your notebook is running out of memory when waking up even though it might feel that way to you!

Hope I was of some help to you...
