drumthrasher109 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I don't know if it's a kernel problem or a bios problem, but I can't get sleep working on my AMD CPU. I'm not sure what kernel I'm using, so how can I check? If I try to sleep, the harddrives will turn off and the power light on my computer will start blinking (as if it's sleeping), but the fans will stay on. If I push the power button to try and bring it back, it won't do anything. So, is there anything I could try and do?

drumthrasher109 Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 I gave up. Since I figured out how to disable sleep, I don't need to worry about it.

drumthrasher109 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 Darn, there isn't any option in my BIOS about Legacy USB support. I guess I'll have to live without Sleep!
