Specs;
MB: AsRock OC Formula Z77 LGA 1155
CPU: Intel i7-3770K Ivy Bridge 3.5Ghz
RAM: 32MB G.Skill Ripsaw Dual-Channel(1866)
GPU: 2X Sapphire Vapor-X Radeon HD7970 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 Ram in Crossfire
HD1: Intel SSD 520 Series Cherryville 240GB
HD2: WD Black 1TB 64MB Cache Ram 7200
Mouse: Logitech Wireless Trackball M570
Keyboard: Microsoft X4 Sidewinder USB
Monitor: NEC 30" LCD-running@2560X1600-Ultra
Currently running Windows 7/64. Also using Asrock formula drive, X-fast Ram drive, IES turned "on". I have the "power on" feature of the mouse turned to off(so that movement of the mouse does not wake the computer from sleep).
This all started happening yesterday, before I even inserted my 2nd video card to go Crossfire. I had deleted all the HP software/drivers/reg entries, as my HP printer died. Then, after rebooting a few times to clean things up, I tried to put the computer into sleep mode-the screen would flash off-like it was entering sleep mode, then come back onto my desktop, like nothing had changed. Strange!!
So, I used a back-up of the last known good registry, rebooted, and tried it again-same exact results. So then I tried to shut off the computer-windows would shut down, and screen would shut off, but all my fans were still just humming along. I had to hold the off button on my computer for about 5 seconds to shut the computer down.
Also, I have tried using the "default" settings in the BIOS, and only changing my XMP ram settings back to 1.3-like I had the computer before, when everything worked-but still, I can't enter sleep mode, and when I try to shut down, the computer enters some sort of pseudo sleep mode with the fans running. I have the "wake" features of the mouse, and LAN disabled in the BIOS, as well.
Nothing had changed...so, I don't understand why all the sudden the computer won't sleep. I've used Sleep many times since I finished this build-with all the same settings, and it worked perfectly.
Why now, do I have this problem. And, how do I fix it(yes, searched Google, and it's just a myriad of things to try-would take days to try everything).
Any help would be appreciated.
