    My PC doesn't wake up

    Hi Guys,
    When I go to standby in my laptop (Z96J), it doesn't wake up later. I used to press the space bar to do it, but after I formated it, it doesn't wake up anymore. I can see that the Hard drive is working but the screen remains off, so I usually have to turn it off by pressing the power button for 10 seconds (which is not good for the HD) and then tun it back on.
    Any idea what is going on?
    Something related: is it ok if for all means that I just leave it hibernating? or is not that good for the PC to hibernate so often? (each ~3 hours).
    Thanks.

    I can't help you with the first problem. But I hibernate mine overnight every night with never a problem.
