Aspire 5612ZWLMi

I've recently bought an Acer Aspire 5612ZWLMi running Vista Home Premium. On the whole I'm happy with it and actually quite like Vista except for the power management - which I've had to set to never hibernate and never sleep - the machine will never wake from either of these states.

I've googled around and there seems to be a dozen or so hotfixes available and thousands of users having similar issues with Vista. I've tried the Intel graphics card update without success. I don't really want to start applying beta hotfixes all over the place. Has anyone else had the same problems and found a relailbe fix for this machine?

 

i have experienced a similar problem with my 9300, i do believe its a vista/driver issue, also the problem gets logged in the event viewer but it never mentions what device/process/etc causes the issue.
i side stepped the problem by installing xp instead.
i cant say i tried very hard to fix the issue lol

 

I Have another problem when I personalise power management settings it will save normally,but after the restart settings going back to default .

 

Thats odd, it sounds like that you're having a software issue with the epowermanagement; you could try uninstalling it and installing a newer version, or creating a new power profile and saving it there.

 

Hmmm I'll Try

For you this Microsoft update will help (Update for Windows Vista X86)
Install this update to resolve an issue where you receive a Stop error when you wake a computer running Windows Vista from sleep
