Resume from hibernate fails 30% of the time if lid is closed

4

I have a Lenovo Z585 Ideapad which I put into hibernate frequently. When I do it manually, the machine hibernates and resumes successfully. However, if I close the lid, which I have set to Hibernate instead of Sleep, the machine fails to resume from hibernate about 30% of the time and restarts with

Windows failed to resume from hibernate with error status 0xC0000001

and

The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

Why does closing the lid cause different behavior?

In case it's unclear, I'm closing the lid which causes it to hibernate 100% of the time, but the computer fails to resume ~30% of the time.

Hibernation can fail if the hibernatin file (hiberfile.sys) is too small. By default Windows will use 75% of the RAM size. Maybe this is not enough. Use powercfg to set the size to 100%. Open a command prompt with adminrights and run this command:

powercfg -h -size 100

In Windows 8 I had to do this.

powercfg /h /size 100

Now check if Hibernation/resume works fine.

Try updating your drivers (manually, or using DriverMax).

If that doesn't work, try this article: Fix: Error Code 0xc0000001 in Windows 8 After Updating Windows
