2: My PC will not wake up from sleep, the only way is to push the power button on the case...

I see you're running an SSD, and not resuming from sleep is a common problem with these types of drives. I haven't been able to find a direct fix but have used MCE Standby Tool on my HTPC which fixed the problem. It will automatically adjust all of the power management settings in widows based on how you want the pc to behave.

The "Allow hybrid sleep" is OK set to yes.
Hybrid sleep is essentially hibernation. When the PC sleeps in hybrid mode it maintains the current state to RAM and also writes to a hibernation file. This ensures that if the power is disconnected it can resume the current state from the hibernation file instead of RAM.

This. From pressing the power button to fully loaded Windows 7 desktop is less than 20 seconds.

No matter how you look at it, successful sleep is way, way, way faster than a cold start. In fact sleeping and coming out of it on a spinner is still much quicker than cold booting an SSD so if someone wants to sleep their PC and are forced instead to shutdown it would immediately negate one of the benefits of owning an SSD, excluding of course, every day operations being faster.

Personally I don't sleep my PC but that's only because I use it as a server/nas for music/video but as soon as I buy a true NAS I'll have to tackle the sleep issue as well. I used to sleep my HTPC but stopped doing that as well. I may resume doing it once I put Windows 8 on it. My UD3H has/had problems with sleeping Sandforce SSDs - I was hoping the fix would be Everest 2 but another user on here has reported the same problem. It can't be SSDs in general though since some folks have said that they have no problem going into and coming out of sleep mode so, next challenge for me is coming up.

I agree it is faster, but to lose 19 seconds daily is hardly the end of the world. The feature causes more trouble than it's worth I find. May as well just eliminate it. If I could shed my beer belly through 19 seconds of exercise a day, I'd totally fill that block of time with that. tongue.gif

This,

I usually do something while my PC boots..
Take the rubbish out, make a Ethernet cable (at least half), or grab a drink/snack.

Otherwise I'm on the phone or texting waiting for it to boot, there is the odd time where I'll sit and wait for about 15 seconds though tongue.gif

It depends what you use your pc for. I shutdown my gaming pc as it boots quick enough (the bios post takes 50% of my boot time). On my HTPC I put it into sleep as I need it to automatically wake up to record tv shows, which can't happen from S4 or S5. Also a 20 boot has low WAF compared to a 2 second resume biggrin.gif

Point.. Personally I just leave the PC on and turn the screen/speakers/backlit keyboard off. My processor consumes 10w at idle and probably less with absolutely nothing open. This is really good for updates etc while I do something like mow the lawns! smile.gif

That's pretty good idle consumption, most pcs consume 5w in sleep.The screens tend to be the biggest power hogs on most standard spec systems (ie not the sort most people here have) these days for normal use.

I once saw a statistic that said (I probably don't have it 100% right) if everyone in the US turned off their devices instead of putting them in standby, no new power stations would be needed there for 10 years.

When I wait for my PC to boot for 30 seconds I...


Go for a 5Km Run.

Eat Breakfast.

So some school work.

Go for a ride on my motorbike.

Watch some Top gear on TV.
