    Are any owners of the 8130 or 8150 experiencing random freezes with their laptop? Some owners of the 8130 reported random freezes during gaming, running non-intensive apps, or just idling.

    I was wondering whether these freezes were limited to the 8130 or whether 8150 owners were also experiencing them.

    Thanks.

    This is the kind of thing that my HP did that drove me nuts. No amount of re-formatinng, driver updating, or troubleshooting would get the thing to run or sleep perfectly.

    Nope never encountered anything like that and I do leave my laptop on idle for quite some time, come back and it is as responsive as ever.

    You gotta wonder is this why the sandy bridge recall was all about.

    Sandy bridge was recalled because of a faulty sata controller. Nothing more. And that which eventually would die out shouldn't have any effect like freezing the system, it would just stop working. Unless of course the main system HDD is connected to the faulty sata controller but with the way clevo have their laptops setup the main HDD is not connected to it.

    I have no clue, didn't happen once with me. Could someone please elaborate more on the issue? Does it freeze after resuming from sleep mode or what?

    I've experienced these symptoms. I have the 8170 and it's doing the same thing. I've even started keeping a log of my freezes.

    What happens to me is the computer just locks up. No error screen, just complete lockup with the last thing I saw on the screen frozen. It has been happening to me a few times a night (daytime I'm at work so cant tell). I have the same problem, it doesnt matter what I'm doing, browsing webpages, no apps running, just sitting idle staring at desktop it will occasionally freeze. On a good note, I've only had it freeze during heaving gaming once. The shortest time between freezes was 15 min at the worst however.

    I have also noticed I have one hell of a time getting it out of hibernate. it seems maybe 50/50 it will actually come out of hibernate. The other times I can hear the hd spinning up and the fans kicking on but the screen stays black. I eventually have to hold the power down for 4 sec and do a reboot that way.

    Incase anyone was wondering I ran HWmonitor and my temps are all great. On idle my temps range from 34-38 Celsius and under heaving gaming they get up to about 58 degrees. So I'm not sure what could be causing the freeze.
