Hello,
I have a big problem with one of my motherboards.
I am using two similar configurations, both have the same components (motherboard, CPU, RAM), the only difference is in the used graphic card and the hard drives.
Configuration 1 - won't sleep:
- AsRock H67M - MicroATX
- Intel Core i3 2100, 3.1 GHz
- 8 GB PC1333 DDR3 RAM (2 x 4 GB) - Kingston (KVR1333D3N9K2/8G - PC3 - 10600 CL9 -240 pin DIMM)
- HDD1: 500 GB WD Green (WDC WD5000AACS-00G8B1)
- HDD2: 1,5 TB Seagate (ST31500341AS)
- PowerColor ATI Radeon 5450, PCI-Express
- Windows 7 Home Premium (reinstalled twice, updated to Service pack-1)
Configuration 2 - sleep works flawlessly:
- AsRock H67M - MicroATX
- Intel Core i3 2100, 3.1 GHz
- 8 GB PC1333 DDR3 RAM (2 x 4 GB) - Kingston (KVR1333D3N9K2/8G - PC3 - 10600 CL9 -240 pin DIMM)
- HDD1: 500 GB WD Seagate
- Sapphire ATI Radeon 5670, PCI-Express
- Windows 7 Home Premium SP-1
The problem is, my computer (configuration 1) won't go to sleep. Whatever I do, the screen will go to sleep, the computer alone won't.
I tryed to update to the latest BIOS (v. 1.60) from these site:
ASRock > Products > Motherboard > H67M > Download
But nothing changed.
I also changed and swapped the power supply (a new LCPower 420W), so the PSU should not be the problem.
I have tryed different options in UEFI, like:
Test 1:
Deep Sx = Enabled in S4 and S5
Susped to RAM = Enabled
What happens: monitor goes to sleep, computer won't
Test 2:
Deep Sx = Enabled in S4 and S5
Susped to RAM = Disabled
What happens: monitor goes to sleep, the HDD are spinning down, LED on the computer case is blinking (like it would sleep), but the fans won't stop spinning.
What should I do? Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Peter
