Windows 10: After opening lid laptop wakes up for few seconds and back to sleep

I did refresh my Windows 10 with the media creation tool. But no luck. All updates are there.

When I close the lid of my laptop it goed in to hibernation / sleeping mode. I open the lid later and press the power buton to get my laptop back to life. It start up and screen goes on for a few seconds and then goes back a sleep. Some times after 3 times it stays on but 10 is also possible.

Shutting down Windows / laptop and complete restart is no problem at all. Anybody a sollution? It started a few weeks ago. Can not remember I installed something or changed the configuration.

Anybody a solution for the on/off problem?

Laptop tries to wake from sleep while lid is closed.

Hello,

I have a Gateway NV53A with Windows 10 Home installed. When I close the lid, it goes to sleep normally for a few hours, but after a few hours it will start to get caught in a never ending "wake up loop" i.e. the laptop will try to wake itself up before quickly
realizing that it can't because the lid is closed. The DVD drive will continuously start to spin up each time. This happens every two or three seconds. The sound of the DVD drive trying to spin up every three seconds is annoying and it also wastes battery.
Normally, I have to hit a key on the keyboard to wake up the laptop after opening the lid again, but when it's in one of these wake up loops, it successfully wakes itself up upon opening the lid (evidence suggesting it's indeed trying to wake itself up.)

I've tried using the command line to see what devices are permitted to wake up the device, but none were listed. I've also disabled wake on LAN.

The only clue I've been able to find is an error in the system log that reads: "The system firmware has changed the processor's memory type range registers (MTRRs) across a sleep state transition (S4). This can result in reduced resume performance."

However, I'm not sure this pertains to the specific issue I'm having.

 

Wake up laptop from Sleep Mode when opening lid. How to bring it back?

Hi Suvarna,

Thank you again.

My laptop is waking up from Sleep Mode normally, ok? It just won't wake up anymore when I open the lid. I just like to have it back. And It worked well until the first time that the machine entered Sleep Mode with the lid opened and I had to wake up it using
the Power Button.

Cheers,

 

Hi elrosso.

Lets first see if hibernation is the problem. (Can't say why the problewm started now, maybe a driver.)

To a command prompt(admin) type

powercfg -h off

This will disable Windows Fast Start Up as well. This is just a test. Test behaviour of sleep.

To turn hibernation back on you type powercfg -h on

I would also head into your advance power options and see what activities are listed for closing lid and power button. Yes you had them set but a little Windows helper may have changed them.

Hi Ken,

Thank you for your help. At an other forum they helpt me and solved this problem. Thanks again.

 

Great. Would you mind sharing what the fix was. Thanks

I had to use Farbar Recovery Scan Tool with a special script (will not share that due to tailor made). That did the trick.

 

Interesting. Take care.
