    Hi everyone! I have an Asus G73jh an updated from Windows 7 to Windows 10 on Sunday. Everything looks like it was compatible and successfully updated, but when my computer goes to sleep it freezes within seconds of signing back in. Yesterday after it froze the first time I powered off the computer and the first time I powered it back on it froze again. The second time I powered off and on it worked, until today when I just woke the computer up again and it froze in the exact same way.

    I haven't been able to find much online in regards to this issue. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone else have a resolution?

    With my P79xx I have had one freeze but usually no real issues.

    I thought it might be the realtek drivers since that was an ongoing issue with the g73jh before, but i replaced them and it started freezing again today.

    it may have put back the other drivers. They are auto updated by W10.
