March, April and the first half of May was somewhat bearable, I only got a freeze maybe once a week. However in the past two-three weeks it's bad once again, I have a 50-50 chance to see a proper...
After a few good days it occurred again. WhoCrashed did not find a minidump to work with. However I went through the event list again and while I still couldn't see an entry from the time of the...
I checked the windows logs but there is nothing from the time of the freeze: There are stuff from before the pc went to sleep then the next things are warnings that windows had an unclean start (ie I...
Sigh, I had the freeze twice in a row again. I sat down tried several sleep-wake loops with more and more apps running but couldn't repro the freeze. Although god knows what kind of background...
Oh one important difference between my previous and current win 10 installation: last time I put it on the deferred upgrade path but now I'm on the default (daily?) one. It is possible that an update...
With the new windows I had the wake freeze once so far. Chkdsk behaves as before, the only way it was able to process C: was booting from a recovery/install USB stick and forcing a volume dismount....
So I suddenly lost 15 Gb on C: leaving 0 bytes free. Windows showed me some app statistics which made no sense: Ethernet driver 11 Gb in size, Libre office 12 Gb... Empty files started to pop up on...
Sleep has just failed, the displays never turned on.
I booted to safe mode with command prompt chkdsk still says that stuff is in use so the checking must take place during startup. Then it indeed...
dalchina: Sorry for the slow responses but I'm swamped with work. For now another clue: sleep (non-hybrid) works fine.
DigitalDon: I don't think this thread is the right place to express general...
I meant that after restarting windows, logging in, waiting for a while for the startup items THEN going to sleep and waking up works. I usually don't restart the pc for weeks, only send it to sleep....
Thanks for the reply.
It has been working since I installed windows 7 RTM, kept working through the updates, the upgrade to win 10 and the patches for that.
There were no hardware changes. I'm on...
Hey,
Sometimes when my PC comes back up from hibernation (hybrid sleep enabled) it freezes so stiff that even the reset button stops working. The screen updates once so the clock widget on my...
I went through the list of running services and realized that I have CorsairLink controlling the water cooling for the CPU. Sure enough, I was able to delete the file after killing that service. It...
Interesting:
STATE : 4 RUNNING (STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)
STATE : 1 STOPPED
[SC] DeleteService SUCCESS
Yet I was not able to delete the file...
Yeah I saw it mentioned a lot on this forum but no I don't have it. In fact I do not know which of the installed apps or running services would want this. I don't have benchmarks, hardware monitors...
Cpuz136_x64.sys is causing a BSOD in the first couple of minutes after start. I found the file in the temp folder but can't delete it as some service is locking it. If I use Unlocker to delete it on...
Didn't work for me. I'm still asked how to open a PDF every time, with stock MS viewer already selected, no tickbox to always use that app...
As it turns out the Razer Hydra controller kept the system awake.
I still haven't figured out what the problem is. I disabled all wake functionality in the network device, updated its driver, unplugged the BT dongle. Now an elevated "powercfg /requests" returns...
Actually, they don't stick out: the brighter the taskbar gets the less the contrast becomes between the button text and the button background. In my case it's alright but it would be better if all...
Well, the next task is somehow changing the highlight and text color for the taskbar buttons...
Seems to be working. Good find!
Thanks for the help but I'm fine with having it now.
Same as the first context menu.
