Hello, this is my problem. I have noticed when my computer goes into sleep mode, and i try to turn it back on, it doesn't seem to fully turn on. I can see the fans spinning but not making that usual loud fan noise, and no image shows on monitor. I used fx 8120. I replaced my processor with my older phenom ii x4 955 and sleep mode worked normal as always. I have not had any issues with this fx processor other than this particular problem. I am able to fix it by turning my power supply off and back on again, do i have to do something in the bios for my fx processor? what is the problem here?

My question is why it does it with fx processor and not with phenom ii 955 it doesn't make sense. I have next to latest bios, the newer just updates usb plugins which i doubt is relevant. I want to fix this so i can use sleep mode in order to preserve computer life span, instead of shutting it down. Is there some sleeping option i should change in bios for fx?
