Here is my story:
I've had this laptop for apx 3 years and it has been very nice and stable...
Back in April my system was running fine except that for some reason the Hibernate-function (something I use often) stopped functioning.
After several days of trying to fix this, I eventually decided to re-install.
I did the re-install very meticulously, taking great care in searching for the right and latest drivers. Also I followed advice according to the great info on:
http://www.tweakhoun...upertweaks1.htm
(Only minor stuff, and only stuff I'd done on my previous install without errors.)
After the re-install hibernate now works fine again. But something else started happening:
When I close the lid of my laptop, about 20% of the times I will get a bluescreen and the system reboots before I even get a chance to properly read the blusecreen.
The frequency of the bluescreens seems to vary according to how "heavily" the computer has been used.
For example if I've only booted up, they are less likely (However - sometimes it happens also when I close the lid right after a fresh restart).
But after watching movies and stuff, it seems to be more prone to happen.
Here is what I have tried this far:
-Restored my computer to earlier states (using 'Acronis true Image')
-Done a comprehensive malware-scanning/cleansing.
-Tried about four different drivers for my video-card.
The tricky thing is that the Blusecreen is so inconsistent which makes it hard for me to do testing and know if its resolved or not.
Sometimes I can close the lid and not have a problem for a couple of days. Often I have thought I was rid of it only to see the bluescreen suddenly appear again.
This is of course very frustrating to never know what will happen when I close my lid. So I'd greatly appreciate your help guys !!
