My only suggestion is to make sure that when you close it, you do so firmly to make sure it makes a solid connection, and doesn't pop open a little right when it first tries to sleep. That might confuse it.

That is true, but I never did it deliberately, so it'll be hard for me to follow that advice. :I


But still, it's not (always) the culprit. Today I just closed it normally, "have seen the light" etc., but when I opened it later the light went blank and that was it. The system was under heavy usage (big Photoshop files inside) prior to falling asleep, so that might be one of the reasons. Still, this is unacceptable behaviour, especially as half of those Photoshop files were not saved. :/

Also, be sure to wait until the light starts to pulse before you move it.

What do you mean? I am not sure how physically moving the notebook can change anything...
