The guys over @ Gizmodo have found an issue with Windows 7 beta going into sleep…it doesn’t like waking up again (note to self: Ask MS if Windows 7 is a student…)…
From the Giz article:
“I came home last night, I thought my previously healthy Windows 7 machine was dead. It was making a horrendous squeal and refused to reboot multiple times. Turns out it was asleep.”
Only after countless reboots, pulling the plug, booting and re-booting again did it come back to life-a worrying time I’m sure!
Things like this are to be expected in a beta and I’m sure Redmond will get it fixed before Windows 7 is released in it’s full glory, but it’s good to be aware of these things so people don’t freak out 🙂 I’ll echo Gizmodo and say it’s probably a good idea to disable sleep/hibernate/power save just in case…
