I downloaded the update and just now I woke up the pc and it's working fine. Too soom to tell although, cuz it doesn't happen everytime the pc sleeps. lol -----Original Message----- From: Chip Orange Sent: Tuesday, October 6, 2015 2:50 PM To: tchild ; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: RE: sleep Hi, Rick Thomas also mentioned this recently. I have a work pc which goes into sleep any time I'm away from the keyboard for more than a few minutes, and I have a laptop at home which goes into sleep frequent to save battery. I am not seeing this. My only thought was that (assuming you aren't using Windows XP) that perhaps there's a driver issue on some pcs, and updating the video or the audio driver may solve this. Try running narrator if WE stops responding after sleep to see if the sound card is still working; if you can't get any sounds at all, perhaps the audio driver should be the first to be looked at. If it's working, could you get any sighted help to tell you if the screen is looking ok after sleep? Can you restart WE and does that work, or can you run NVDA or narrator? If none of them will run, and you have sound, perhaps the video driver is next on the list? Do you know how to read the Windows event log? You could check the events for any errors which happen around the time of going into sleep or coming out, to see if they give you a clue as to what is failing. If you aren't using the free Office version of Window-Eyes, why not give WE support a ring and ask for their help; they know a lot of the answers that we can only guess at here. Hth and please do let us know if you find anything.
