    There are so many threads rlated to this but I decided to make a new since I don't have a problem, I have solved mine so I wanted to share, maybe someone has the same problem.
    When I have any USB device plugged to a PowerUSB port, laptop just hangs and doesn't go to stand by nor hibernates. All lights are lit up and the screen is off. The only way to start it again is to keep the power button pressed for a few secs for a forced shut down. This does not happen when normal USB is used.
    This does not have to be the only issue(and it's not), some saying that some nvidia drivers are causing the same hang.
    Did you find any other solutions to this?
