Press hibernate/sleep on X61 fails resulting in blue-screen

[SFWrtr]

I have an X61 tablet and I am getting an intermittent failure trying to go to sleep or hibernate. Doesn't matter if I use fn+F4 or fn+F12 or the power button (set to sleep). Sometimes, and I haven't pinned down something common here other than it isn't the first try after booting, the screen goes black, intermittent disk activity continues, and the system doesn't go to sleep (and won't respond to keystrokes). Waiting for approximately 15 minutes ends up with the computer rebooting itself. The system reports a blue-screen-of-death failure. Some details follow. Anybody else experiencing this?

Nope. Looks like a stupid Vista bug.

Try reading those files it points to (if you're tech-savvy enough), or take those crash signatures and try searching google or microsoft's website.

Vista strikes again

The XML file is a list of all loaded files and drivers. The .DMP file is just that, and it requires a dump reader. The version file identifies the version of Vista running. At least XP gave you some info about where the failure occurred.

Though it might be related to Vista, I am not entirely convinced. I did like how XP would say "Preparing to hibernate" and then show a gauge as it hibernated. Vista, nada, you have no idea it is stuck until the X61 fails to beep as 30secs, 60secs, 2 minutes... Sleep should be instantaneous, with in a second normally, and no more than 5 seconds at most. I almost dread to sleep the machine, now. (Vista boots to Welcome in 45 seconds, so it not so bad, other than the lost data.)

Anybody know how to read dumps?

Anybody experience the symptom?
