OK, the answer to the OP post is to Deactivate the Prefetch/superfetch button so that the Magician reads Activate. The Superfetch is disabled when the Activate button is showing in the Magician software. The screenshot by Odd Ramos is what you should see for a properly set Advanced settings.
For folks that are still having this issue, we have 16 pages of frustrated postings at the eight forums site:

K, I solved it! It is an issue with HOMEGROUP in Win8.1 Pro. Mind you, the HOMEGROUP computers that are preventing sleep don't even have to be turned on! Basically, I had to take the three computers in the house, unshare ALL files/folders (shift-left click to select all files and folders, right...
I found that disabling the network port will allow automatic sleep to work. This will not work if I leave the network port disabled during a restart or shutdown, probably because Windows is trying to phone home or something else is. Now to figure out WHY, heh.
I went from 268 and 169 seq read and writes to 558 and 529 by using my INTEL 6GB SATA ports instead of my Marvell 6GB SATA ports on my ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe mobo. I swear I had the Marvell drivers set up properly but what the hell, works GREAT now.
I hope others can benefit from this head slapper.
Remember to check the box for reduce DVI frequency for high res monitors! ( this is directly from an AMD moderator on their site). Otherwise, my card gets more unstable over time...
ATI Catalyst Control Center-Desktop and Displays- right click on little down arrow in the upper right on bottom...
This may be too late, but the DVI cable may have wiggled loose on your old card (ask me how i know this issue). Before you recycle it, try it once more, for old times sake.
Dang, I remember hearing about a solution years ago.. heh, that helps a lot I know! It was in the settings? 48KHz instead of 96Khz? Don't think it was drivers. Time for a wayback machine, Sherman... "My mind is going, I can feel it Dave"
You are just postponing the inevitable. Games will not be getting ?less graphics? or ?slower?. Going back may buy you 6 months or so then the next big hit will come out and you will be in the same boat. Meantime, you have eaten about $60 worth of electricity to keep your CRT running. Recycle...
Think simple here.
Remember, people are terrific at remembering patterns. Just figure out a way to create a visual pattern and people would be the best navigators.
Take it you cannot go in. If you could, just paint the damn things a different color.
If the robot can just go in, have it...
Radioactive dating occurs because living tissue creates and Ionized version of carbon while it is alive. They are not found in nature otherwise. They start to decay ata constant rate after death. I think you can only go back 10-20 thousand years with this technique. quite accurate tho in that range.
I would guess that you do not have all the power cables installed on the mobo. There is a connector labeled #27 on the product manual. Did you PLUG that in? Do you also have the CORRECT type of power supply? Finally, make sure that you have the power supply cable plugged into the graphic card...
Errr... Mr. Fox, do you actually OWN one of these boards? Have you YOURSELF had any issues with it?
I have a HP MediaSmart Server. People (99% who don't OWN one) are continually bitching about the corruption bug. I don't have any issues with using it and the forum I am using a lot lately, no...
As long as folks know that a "RECOVERY" disk is in no way shape or form a copy of the operating system. It is more of a "recovery from a bad driver or corrupt registry" utility. For instance, if the hard drive dies, you are totally out of luck and the recovery disk does you NO GOOD AT ALL! I...
Did not know regular cable could go this fast?

Must have something to do with their powerboost service for Cox.
Gotta try a BIG file somewhere!
