    Hi guys, New here and have a problem, Thanks for any help I can get. Just received a "new" third party upgraded 4530s. Problem .. I encountered is. When I am on battery mode and close the lid it goes to sleep fine, but when I open the lid and hit the power button it will not awake. The power button just blinks and then turns off. It only awakes when I attach the AC power cord then hit the power button. Then it proceeds to the Windows error screen and says you did not shutdown properly do you want to use the safe mode or the normal startup mode. It does not do this when I close the lid using the AC power and start up with AC power.

    Also... my button on the Bru-Ray drive door does not work. Can only open the drive using the software in devices.
    Thank you
