High Sierra (10.13.3) wake up problems: MSI B75A-G43, GeForce 1030, Ivy-Bridge i3-3220

[greta.gola]

## Problem description ##

PC goes into sleep (S3) and wakes up via power button or any keyboard key, but is unusable after wake up, i.e.

• graphic animations are very slow
• keystrokes and mouse clicks are only registered after a few seconds
• keystrokes and mouse clicks are registered as if pressed long or entered several times
• apps freeze after some seconds
• restarting or shutdown via AppleMenue does not work, have to restart/shutdown via case buttons

Can someone give me any pointers or ideas what might be causing these problems or how I could proceede to find a solution?

I have an otherwise very stable system running, with nvidia web drivers, native CPU and native discrete GPU Power Management.

I was having a VERY similar problem with my hackintosh. After I went to the NVIDIA website and downloaded CUDA, it got a little better, but what truly made the biggest difference was when I stumbled upon this script:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Benjamin-Dobell/nvidia-update/master/nvidia-update.sh)

I can't remember where I found it on this website, but I believe it was made by Benjamin Dobell. What it does is it installs the correct, non-blacklisted, version of the NVIDIA web drivers for MacOSX.

After I did both of those things, my system was working smooth as butter!

I'm a noob, so I'm not even sure if that's your problem or not, but it helped me. So, I hope it can help you too! Please, let me know if it helps you at all.

Thanks for your suggestion! I'll try it out and let you know how it worked.

I installed current CUDA drivers (v. 387.178) and updated NVIDIA drivers with Benjamins script. Sadly none of this solved my problem. I'm not sure whether it is CPU or GPU related, or maybe something entirly different.
