P8P67 Deluxe 2600K W7 64-Bit Fails to resume from standby

[orion23]

Hello everyone!

I've had this setup for 3 years now (I think)
Overclocked @ 4.8ghz with anywhere from 1.295V to 1.330V maximum

Never had an issue with it, until recently
For about 1 month now, windows refuses to resume from standby

I updated all possible drivers, moved the paging file to another drive, reset the bios and applied settings from scratch, but nothing
I did a system check for corrupted windows files and nothing was found

What else can I do ?

Once I reboot and go into windows, still @ 4.8ghz, I can encode all night with no issues, just can't resume from standby

Thank you!

open command prompt
powercfg -h off
Set your hard drive not to power down.

Hybernation is disabled, always has been
HDD's are all set to sleep after 10 minutes, always have

Thanks!

Possibly your PSU's +5VSB (standby) line is sagging, and corrupting standby state.

Recommend trying a new PSU.

I though about the PSU, I'm using a seasonic beast, 1050W...I will see if I can get my hands on another
Thanks for the suggestion

Try removing the Asus Ai Charger driver/software

I had the exact same issue and debugged and reported the issue to Asus (Their driver did not handle Wake correctly)

Just some advice: I've gone through a lot of these types of troubles during the last couple years.

DO NOT . . . leave your computer(s) in "sleep" mode for days at a time.

INSTEAD . . . set the computer to sleep after some period of time -- say, 2 hours. In the "advanced" Power Options window, choose to make the computer hibernate after an additional hour (Hibernate after 3 hours). You can choose these settings according to your need, but use hibernate mode for any extended period. In this context and in the same "advanced" Power Options window, disable "Hybrid" sleep.

REASON: The Sleep state, with its continued use of RAM, puts stress on the PSU. The PSU must supply some power for sleep, but not enough power to take care of PSU cooling needs. So PSU parts will slowly fry over a lengthy period of time. I've had this occur with at least one Seasonic PSU.

And generally, I've had problems configuring sleep states with older PSUs, no less on machines where sleep had never been configured. Replacing the PSU resolved the problem.

I only use sleep mode overnight...usually for an 8 hour period, always have

I have a seasonic 1050-X and it can support 4 PCI-E cards
3 plugs are placed all together
1 is located elsewhere. I switched the connector for my VGA to this one and will test tomorrow morning

Didn't work

Most of the time when this has occurred to me, it was 'bit rot'. A clean install of Windows fixed it right up. As big of a pain in the butt as it is, it is often the only way forward.

I'm do for a clean install of windows...one of these days..

Thank you all for your suggestions

I've had this happen twice. Both times it was failing power supply (as others have mentioned, the standby voltage tends to go first). Good luck.

I enabled hibernate an hybrid sleep
Hibernating alone gives me the same result..no go
with Hybrid sleep, pc goes to sleep, boots from the start, but faster @ resuming windows
than a full restart

That's better than nothing
