Try messing with the powermixer in your ATI CCC.

i changed the windows power plan to high performance and fixed this problem. note that those settings in the ccc power section also get integrated into the power plan of you select 'advanced power settings' youll see them at the bottom

Well, look at that, I didn't even notice it.

If anyone knows how to disable Wake up on lid open action for windows, please do tell

If anyone knows how to disable Wake up on lid open action for windows, please do tell

there is the following command:

powercfg -devicedisablewake "ACPI Lid"

however it spits back a permissions error. if you can figure this to work, i would use it too.

The reason why cause there is no such option

powercfg -devicedisablewake "ACPI Lid" is the same as on device properties -> ACPI Lid -> Uncheck "Allow device to turn off to save power"

there is such a device. if u look in device manager. but unlike the keyboard and mouse, there isnt a power management tab for it. i should start up a discussion in ms's technet forums ... its trolled frequently by ms employees

would u look @ that ... this is my 600th post
