    Most of the time, when my Z71V goes into sleep mode, I cannot wake it back up, despite how many buttons I press on the keyboard. I wait for a minute or two and the screen stays off and I can hear that the HDD is NOT spinning. I am forced to hold down the power button for four seconds and shut it down that way.

    I was reading the V6V sleeping problem post, and that person solved it with disabling the Execution Disable Bit (aka XD). I cannot find this XD in my bios. I don't what to do now.
