    Hi guys, I am using Windows 7

    Each time when I enter my PC into hibernation mode, after the PC successfully hibernate, the PC will power off, and instantly power on again, into BIOS, and resume back into windows.

    What I usually do is to manually power off the PC once it power on again after hibernation.

    This did not happen in Windows Vista.

    Cheers

    hmm, seems more like a bad installation of Win 7? which version are you running?

    Hmm.. I wonder if it has anything to do with the BIOS option, AC PWR Auto Recovery. Try disabling that.

    Will try that, but I thought it's disabled by default already?

    Well, you never know.

    By right, that BIOS option should only have an effect if power gets cut off... but I'm thinking it may be a bug in your case.

    I went to BIOS and disabled all wake up options on BIOS, went to Windows and turned of USB suspend settings in power management, and it's still happening.

    I think I used to have this problem, and I couldn't solve the problem. It was due to Windows problem.

    Ah, too bad then, I read that this issue is caused by using a very large HDD which in my case, a 1TB HDD

    Huh.. Really? Odd that the hard disk drive capacity should cause such an issue.

    I was surfing the web. Sounds like it could be anything :haha:

    But I also read that one of the problem caused by large hard disk involving waking from sleep is that larger hard disk takes longer time to power up, so as the HDD is not powered up when it is expected to do so, it resulted in BSOD, but this issue has been fixed already.

    Oh I see... but I didn't know the spin-up issue was still such a factor. AFAIK, they had already resolved that long ago... :think:
