Have you installed any driver updates yourself? Before or after you installed Windows 7 again?

Have you compared the driver version numbers in your Windows installation with the versions on your board's Windows 7 download page? Or do you just use the default Windows 7 drivers, and any installed by Windows update?

The symptoms you have only make sense if a Windows 7 update installed a different driver for the Realtek network chip, and the WOL settings in Device Manager were changed. Are you sure the WOL setting in the BIOS is still set correctly, if it even has such a setting?

If the Suspend to RAM (S3 Sleep) now seems to be Windows Hibernate, writing to the disk (which normally still writes to DRAM anyway), that may indicate that your memory usage is so large in Windows, it can't be saved to DRAM memory. Or Hibernate has been enabled in Windows 7, by an update or something else. Have you checked your Windows Power Plan or Power Button options, for the S3 Sleep or Hibernate settings?

Have you looked in Event Manager for something being wrote that that might offer some help?
