I recently did a clean install of windows 7 on my computer after adding a new SSD, some hot swap bays, and a new processor. Before my computer can S3 sleep all the time. Now every time I try to do it, it will shut everything down like S1 sleep mode except I can't get out of it and I need to do a hard reboot. I disabled my mouse, and LAN card from waking up my computer as well as preventing windows media center from doing it's thing too. I don't know what else to do. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Here may be some useful information:

I don't know how I can fix or how the USB effects my S3 sleep state.

I found that using the Microsoft AHCI driver instead of the AMD one caused this issue. I was Hoping to get the Faster speeds from the Microsoft driver but I like sleep mode so I guess it's worth it.
