    Sometimes when i close my lid, it suddenly changes my close lid setting to stand by and wont let me change back to hibernate. Something is creating a triangular danger sign in my task bar. Anyone got any ideas how to fix this?

    Try reviewing Event Viewer logs, especially the System log for warnings/errors at the time you close the lid. EV might offer a clue. You might also boot into Safe Mode and delete hyberfil.sys since it might be corrupted. It will be restored on the next hibernation.
