My computer freezes after i've had it in "sleep" modus
8 replies, posted
Okay so here is the deal: After i've had my pc in sleep modus it freezes randomly,often in games but it has also happend when im browsing internet.
Im suspecting its a heat problem, but when i look at my cpu and gpu temp i see its not above 70C.
CPU Lays around 50
Gpu lays around 60
i've tried Ccleaner and stuff like that.
What more is there to try?
more likely a power problem
it cant be, i got 650W. It is more than enough for my specs
gtx/x+ 9800
E8400 3,00 ghz
4gb ram
Specs?
Overclocking may cause this, is it overclocked?
EDIT: uh, ninjad on the specs
What motherboard do you have? Certain manufacturers admit problems in BIOS that cause this issue with certain hardware.

I've got an asus board in another room that has the same issue (though it's in a headless Linux server now so sleep mode isn't needed, or wanted, for that matter) , so it may very well be a BIOS problem.
I actually had this problem, after it woke up from sleep mode, it would freeze for about 5 mins. I thinks it's a psu problem, as I had a cheapo psu when it happened.
That happened to me on both the old build and the one I have now. Shittiest time was when it went to sleep, then I woke it up. It wouldn't, so I force turn it off. Never knew that it had my 1,000 word essay still not saved and lost it. Not only that, my PSU fried right after that. Double pain :/
