    For the past few days, every time I put my computer into sleep mode then turn it back on a Windows problem message pops up saying: Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown. It has started to get annoying because it closes any windows I leave open on my computer. Does anyone know how to solve this problem or figure out why it keeps happening? Thank you!

    Were you running anything just prior to the sleep mode? I remember seeing that once when I had iTunes on, so now I stop it before putting the laptop into sleep mode.

    No other errors until today I received my first BSOD. I was in such shock that I did not look at what error message it was before it restarted itself. Has been fine since, knock on wood.

    The only thing I usually leave open is a Firefox window, it has thankfully not happen the past few times I have put the computer into sleep mode though. It was a very weird stretch of about 3 days.

    I had the same problem.... It has to do with a microsoft update from last week that does not jive with Lenovo's bloatware. I had to restore to about a week ago, and for now I turned off the automatic updates. And now I am fine. But we had to restore it in safemode, but it kept going to BSOD if I restored in Vista.
