Sorry this post should have been in the desktop support forum.
Ok After at least 30 reinstalls and hours of trial and error I have a working system.
My motherboard is GA-h55m-ud2h with an 480GTX plugged in. There is also an unsupported sound blaster plugged into the board which I am not using anymore. I am concerned that if I tinker arround with sleep stuff that I'll have to do a whole reinstall from scratch and begin down the trial-and-error path again.
What currently happens when I try to put the machine to sleep
Screens go blank. Case still has it's power light on. I assume at this point it's asleep.
To get it to wake I try moving the mouse or keyboard which doesn't work (perhaps a BIOS setting) ? And I have tried to press the case power button, to no avail. I need to cold boot the machine to get out of the mess.
What I want to know:
What do I need to do to get sleep to work ? HPET 64-bit and AHCI are enabled in bios, other than that I don't know if the ACPI is configured correctly so any advice on this would help.
What multibeast settings will get sleep to work ?
Note (see below). User DSDT did not work for me, I am hoping the DSDT approach wasn't the cause of my machine not booting due to any ACPI settings (kext's and such) being applied.
How I configured the machine after install :
------------------------------------------------------
User DSDT approach did not work:
I could not multibeast a h55m-ud2h DSDT onto my machine as it made the machine unbootable without "npci=0x3000 GraphicsEnabler=Yes PCIRootUID=1 -x" --i.e., safe mode. No amount of tinkering got me past this problem. I can't be sure if I was doing the DSDT multibeast correctly. I just copied the . aml file to the desktop (without renaming) and running multi beast.
What did work :
EasyBeast -> network -> graphics -> audio -> legacy USB (which makes multibeast bork out with kext linkability related errors,even though inate.). And "PCIRootUID=1"
