Just started two days ago, when my computer goes to sleep it has issues waking up. When I wake it up,my icons, my start menu and toolbar icons don't work until I restart it. Nothing works, but everything looks fine when looking at it. Any clues? Thanks.

Okay, it will probably take until tomorrow morning, I use my computer during the days then it happens when I jump on it first thing.

Also I do not have a hybrid sleep in adv power settings, just sleep and it copies what you put in the main drop window. I never had these problems until 2 days ago.
Thanks.

Hello Alspumoni,

You might also consider doing a system restore using a restore point dated before these problems started to hopefully fix it as well since you say it was fine 2 days ago.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
