Windows 10: Kernel Power failure after sleeping chronic on new Dell Inspiron 15

I have had this issue from the get-go on my new Dell. Whenever the laptop goes to sleep and it defaults to doing so rapidly to conserve power the system reboots, losing any open data and requiring me to restart all of my apps and reopen my files.When I reach out to them, Dell tech support simply does the same default tests remotely, updates the same drivers, and then declares my computer good to go, and tells me my issue is solved. They have been failing with their promised follow-ups, and they decreed my computer out of warranty when I first contacted them within roughly one week of rece

Clone HDD to SSD boot failure on a Dell Inspiron 15 3567

Hi I have a Inspiron 15 3567 Laptop that I recently cloned a SATA hdd over to a new samsung 860 SATA SSD using Macrium Reflect. After the clone, I installed the SSD and attempted to boot. (without the HDD hooked up). Windows 10 appears like its booting, but after 35 seconds at the boot screen, the system reboots and I get this screen:






I tried the following, but the same problem occurs:

• Cloned the HDD from the Laptop with secure boot off and on different hardware.
• Added a second boot entry to point to the efi boot and attempted to boot from the file.
• disabled and enabled secure boot.
• Cleared the security keys (After backing them up)
• I ran the fixboot tool from macrium.

Here is a screen shot of the BIOS




For reference, Support Assist doesnt even see the SSD (I cloned all the partitions)




The SSD boots fine in another configuration, but it does not boot in the laptop itself so I know its not the clone. I'm pretty sure its a BIOS setting that I have over looked. Has anyone experienced this?

 

Dell Inspiron 15 5577 can't resume from sleep

David,

Do you mean that it starts the Shutdown sequence and the computer will turn off if you leave it? That's a setting in Control panel, Power options, Choose what closing the lid does. But you seemed to say that you have this set to Sleep.

Check in your bios and any Dell utilities for anything relating to this. Perhaps one of them has a setting that overrides what you have set up in Widnows 10 Power options???

The next time you shut it down, watch it doing so.
- It sounds to me that either it is failing to shut down or you have a condition set in power options [the advanced section] such as hybrid sleep and it is going into hybrid sleep instead of shutting down.
- If you are in any doubt about what it is actually trying to do, you can initiate shutdown using by pressing Alt-F4

Your own para 5 in Dell Inspiron 15 5577 can't resume from sleep
