    Hi guys, I thought I'd finally fixed this annoyance last night
    (a 22min youtube video shows a guy eventually fix it with updated wifi drivers. Mine were updated, but one difference between system A {OK} and B {BSOD on sleep resume} was that those virtual mini wi-fi ports were disabled on A...), but suffered another fatal system crash today when I opened the lid and tried to resume from sleep..

    It's a new build, windows 7 ultimate x64, on my Dell XPS l502x. I managed to install windbg from the sdk, but get errors about symbols and debuggers when I open the .dmp.

    Can anyone shed any light?

    I thought it's power / graphics / wifi related (drivers not updated/conflict) but I have two builds here, I'm 85% sure they're identical except one has visual studio.

    I thought the symptoms may only be noticed when LCD monitor is attached (not true) or maybe when chrome is browsing...

    It could be that both builds are suffering from this annoying defect, but, so far, one system seems unaffected, whilst the other, same hardware different VHD, is falling over...

    Thanks in advance!
