hibernation and fans on 9750

So, when I'm on AC power, my notebook won't go into hibernation after being idle under the designated time. I set it to like 45 minutes or something but it just stays on. Sometimes, though rarely, I try to manually put it in hibernation but I get a notification that the system doesn't have enough resources to go into hibernation, so I just shut it down instead.

Any thoughts?

Also, I used compressed air to clean out two of the fans, but not the two over the processor because I couldn't open the entire laptop to get to them at the time, yet the fans still immediately go on after the notebook's on for only like 2 minutes. It's not very loud or bothersome, but it's a little odd..

One more thing--One of my four usb ports aren't responding anymore for some reason. I only tried one usb device on it, but it worked in all other three so I'm just assuming that port is screwed.

Do I just have bad luck?

 

I have the exact same hybriation error any one know how to fix for both of us now

 

This has been a problem with XP for a while now, they have a number of hotfixes that supposedly fix the problem... but I still had minor problem with it, the Hibernation/Standby issues should be remedied within Vista... but I would not be so sure until I try it.

The CPU fans turn on automatically when the CPU temps reach about 35-40 C degrees. The GPU fan will turn on automatically when it reaches about 58-60 C degrees. Its nothing usually that they turn on, they need to stabilize rising temps within the "power" components.

The thing you have to realize about USB ports (notebook and desktop) is that once you use a device (lets say a USB mouse) in each port, it will never need be re-detected again.
Example: Lets say you plug a USB mouse in "port 1" for the first time, Windows will show the "detected new hardware" & "setting up new device" thing in the taskbar and say "it is ready for use". Then the next time you plug the same USB mouse into this same port, it wont need to go through the steps again because it remembered the settings (hardware and software/drivers) for that particular device.
So this happens from USB port to USB port.

I am not sure what device that you used, but the best way to see if its detected to is go into the Device Manager then plug in the device and see if something new has shown up.

And make sure your USB ports are enabled in the BIOS and the Device Manager.

I dont know.
You just gotta understand all that comes with a high-end notebook... using a Windows OS.

 

I knew the whole bit about windows not needing to redetect things. I've got a wireless mouse, but the base of it needs to connect to the computer via usb. When plugged into port 1, since it's actually the first port, the mouse does not respond or move.

Thanks for the other things.

 

A wireless mouse is sometimes difficult to use as a USB diagnostic device. The reason being that it needs to get its signal connect to the receiver and to the mouse, or you will experience nothing happening.

I doubt that the USBs are broken, it would be highly unusual. I think you can try any other USB device (most common is USB pen drive) to make sure.
