I have a very odd sleep issue with my HTPC. It is running Windows 7 x64. Basically if I manually tell the computer to sleep it goes to sleep fine and wakes up fine on pressing the power button.
However if the computer goes to sleep itself after x amount of time it will not wake back up. After pressing the power button you can here the fans and HDDs spooling up but it doesn't come back on. The power light also doesn't come back on. The only way to get it back on is by holding down the power button to turn it completely off and then it goes through the usual Resuming from Windows hibernation stuff.
I am using Hybrid Sleep and the motherboard is set to allow S3 type suspend. Initially it wouldn't automatically sleep at all but I corrected that by installing the Microsoft Intellipoint drivers for the Wireless 1000 mouse. This was a known issue I've had to do on previous installs.
There is one unknown device on the system, which is part of the Black Gold TV tuner but there is no driver available for it. Windows recognises it as a co processor and I have it disabled.
Any ideas?
