or150 Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 Hi, I am using uTorrent 3.3.1 on windows 7 x64.For some reason, if i put my computer into s3 sleep when uTorrent is running, it won't wake from sleep and instead, shuts itself down. The next time i turn on the computer, it would try to resume as if it is waking from hibernation, and of course,it won't succeed.The problem has started after formatting the computer and installing a newer version of uTorrent.Any ideas?

ciaobaby Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 There are several threads on the same topic, currently the best solution is NOT have uTorrent running when the machine 'sleeps'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
or150 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I have seen posts about uTorrent not 'restarting' when the computer awakes from sleep.I am talking about windows not being able to get out of S3 sleep at all.Its pretty annoying since i put the computer into sleep alot of times lately.

or150 Posted October 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Nobody?Disabling hybrid sleep stops it from happening but this shouldn't be the solution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 but this shouldn't be the solutionWhy not? BitTorrent relies on connections with other peers and the machine going to 'sleep' doesn't give any BitTorrent client chance to close those connections cleanly, so it is going to 'wake up' and try to re-establish communications with peers that are in all probability, no longer there.

The RAM is wiped clean.Then when booting again windows tries to load everything into the ram from the HDD but there is no memory dump in there at all so nothing happens.

ciaobaby Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 The computer isn't 'waking up' after entering into sleep.So why is that a uTorrent 'problem' then???If anything, it is the "power plan" settings on the computer that are incorrect or excessive, how could it be expected for ANY application to "wake up" correctly if the machine is failing to save and subsequently restore 'state' correctly????

or150 Posted November 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 It's uTorrent's problem when the only program that causes this beaviour is uTorrent.I can run a lot of different programs that do a lot of different things and utilizes many types of resources and sucessfully restore from S3 Sleep mode, but when uTorrent is running the problem appears.Don't blame the machine when the software is ruined, and don't attack me when you answer.

DreadWingKnight Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I am talking about windows not being able to get out of S3 sleep at all.You've got major issues if this is the case.It's probably a memory save-state race condition though.

rafi Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 save-state race condition though.Could it be caused by uTorrent memory leak?... Anyways, I suggest to see if you have this issue also with the latest stable - 3.3.2 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
