Hi

So i've been having this problem where i put my computer into sleep mode and then i leave it for half an hour then when i come back i wake it up and the fans turn on but hten it immediately goes off?
Then we i turn it back on it says ''windows did not turn off properly''!

It's really annoying and any help would be grately appreciated

My Computer is a ACER ASPIRE 4740g with windows 7 Home premium
 
I have seen this issue before on an work HP running XP Pro. I know it is a configuration issue but it was not resolved on that machine (the machine in question went to our headquarters IT for a propriety hardware upgrade and has been unheard of since).
 


Strange, how are you waking it up? In windows power options, is the power button set to shutdown computer when pressed?
 

Power button is set to shut down but im waking it up by moving the mouse or pressing a key on the keyboard
 
I am having exact same issue with the new build, and no, disabling something =/= repairing it, at least not in my books : )

This seems like a bios issue, btw if this was fixed on your side, please let me know what helped.
