PC shutting down/bsod waking up from sleep

[Mooshi]

So, to get to the point, my system refuses to wake up from sleep if left this way for long periods of time.

 

At first I thought it had something to do with a CPU overclock, ram overclock or even gpu overclock, but reverting them to either stock form or a well known OC that passes Intel Burn Test for 10 turns on maximum doesn't seem to be working. Upon changing some things in my power settings to disable some power savings options, I manually put system into sleep mode to take a nap.

 

Low and behold, the computer wakes up and I can actually see the last web page I was browsing, but only for a split second before I get hit by a BSOD. When the system reboots, I noticed my SSD wasn't detected. After unplugging the sata cable and plugging it back in, my system worked as if nothing ever happened. Are there instances where an SSD can become disconnected during long periods of sleep on Windows 7? I hope this issue can be fixed with some setting on Windows or swapping the cable and not the entire drive. :l

Upon swapping the cables around (sata cable connected to HDD swapped to SSD and vice versa), I noticed my SSD showed up just fine in bios, but my HDD was suddenly lacking. This made me think that maybe something is wrong with my Sata III ports where it only likes one device being plugged. Since HDDs are more or less always going to be the same speed regardless if they are plugged into Sata II or Sata III, I figure there is zero performance hits connecting the HDD to the slower port. Upon doing this, both SSD and HDD show up normal.

 

Guess that solves the missing drive problem..but not entire sure about my sleep mode situation as I am wide awake now and will have to test sleeping the system next time I go to bed.

If it does it again try a Clean Boot
