    Have Anyone else encountered this problem: After awaking from hibernation or during startup, window loads and stops loading at a blank screen with a blinking underscore. This happened to me a bunch of times and I dont know why its happening? Anyone know whats wrong here?

    Could be something is interfering with your hibernation. Some software is known to do this.

    That's exactly what happens to my m1530! It's really annoying because that means I have to turn my notebook off by pressandhold through the power button which means that I'm gonna have to boot up from scratch. It's a real pain.
