MacBook Pro running Windows 7 trouble sleeping

MacBook Pro running Windows 7 trouble sleeping

I have Windows 7 on my bootcamp partition and everything was working fine until now... now when I close the lid, the computer doesn't go to sleep completely (fans are running).. when I reopen it the screen remains black and I have to hard reset the machine.
Details: when I close the lid the computer keeps running and the white LED turns on (not blinking)... when I open the lid the LED turns off but the screen doesn't appear (computer is still running)... closing the lid again causes the light to turn on again and so on...
I installed the latest Win7 bootcamp drivers, updated NVidia driver with even newer version and tried to disable the MacDrive service (I suspected MacDrive could be the culprit because I installed it recently).
I run "SFC -SCANNOW" to repair corrupter system fails but it also didn't help.
What else could I do? Can this be related to the fact that I'm running Windows on Mac or is it probably the problem in Windows (something got screwed)?
thank you! david
