I don't know what to do to make this thing work.
#Sleep vs hibernate toshiba laptop drivers#
The only thing I installed in between was the Elan drivers for the trackpad (because I am so dependent on 2 finger scrolling.) Although possibly that is coming shortly. I suppose I should be happy it did not go into recovery only mode again. When it woke up for the 2nd time, it immediately crashed. But of course that only lasted for one cycle. But when I started it today after it went to sleep last night, it started without a problem. And started the lengthy process of getting everything reinstalled. Frankly, I had been thinking of doing this for a long time to finally end the madness.Īnd so I did. The only option was to reformat and reinstall windows from scratch. I could not start it in any way after that. But the next time, it started and went into recovery mode. It crashed normally the first time I started up after the software update. When the Windows update came out this past week, I optimistically thought hey, maybe this problem will go away. So I have just been living with this for 2 years, at various levels of awfulness. About 3-4 months ago, this stopped working such that I would have failures 95% of the time. The likelihood of failure reduced to the level that I could restart ok 2 out of 3 times. I got some relief by changing the power settings to hibernate instead of sleep (I think - this was a while ago). I had lengthy discussions with technical support when the laptop was still in warranty, but they just told me to reinstall drivers and otherwise were no help. I reinstalled every driver on the MSI site, which had no effect whatsoever. This basically means that if I shut the laptop cover, it is almost certainly going to take me 2-5 minutes to start back up.

When I upgraded to Windows 10 when it came out - so now over 2 years - it started crashing about 75% of the time when any of the following occur: I have had a stealth g70 (System Model GS70 2QD) for a while.
