Instant Resume blanked out and very slow coming out of sleep

[mulleady]

When I first got my X220 it would come out of sleep within 4 seconds, even after a long time.


Now it takes ages. I also notice that the instant resume feature is blanked out when I right click the Thinkpad power manager battery icon. Has anyone had this experience and are there any solutions?

Thanks

Update: I have just installed Intel Rapidstore drivers and this seems to have improved the wake speed. I will keep this thread updated on this.

Update 2: False alarm. Still slow waking up if lid closes more than 5 mins and instant resume has mysteriously blanked out since yesterday despite resetting Power Manager to default settings

You have to set the Lid Closed to Sleep or Hibernate in Global Settings, to have Instant Resume available.

I have this issue too, since I updated to the last BIOS (1.21) when I close the lid the computer is going to sleep but after few hours it hibernates and when I open the lid I have to turn it on and it takes a lot of time to wake up ( I have an Intel SSD and 8GB of RAM), I think it's because of the last BIOS
