Trouble Putting PC to Sleep  

I finally determined what the cause of my PC waking up right after I invoke sleep function Start > Power > Sleep. I recently purchased a Velocifire wireless (2.4ghz) keyboard that also comes with a USB cord so it can be used in corded mode. When used in corded mode, sleeping the PC is not a problem. When I use the wireless dongle, the PC refuses to sleep for more than a second. So, the wireless mode of this keyboard is what triggers the problem. In addition to the things I've tried in my original post, here are the results of some suggestions you guys made:

• Created a new fake user and logged in under than user. Same behavior.
• Started PC in Safe Mode. Unfortunately, in Safe Mode sleep functions are limited to the monitor and hard drives. Nothing to put the PC to sleep.
• Tried going into sleep via Alt + F4. Same behavior.
• powercfg -a reports S3 is active on my system.

There are no obvious irregularities in Device Manager. The dongle shows up under USB Serial Bus Controllers as a USB Composite Device.

• General Tab says "This device is working properly".
• In Driver Tab, I tried searching for a better driver, but Windows says there is no better driver.
• There is no Power Management tab.

So as it turns out, all of things I've tried appear to have been a waste of time as it was not addressing the wireless function of the keyboard. I contacted the manufacturer and they suggested that I delete the USB Composite Device entry, re-boot and re-insert the dongle. However, that did not change inability to sleep the PC.

Any other ideas?

 

Pc shuts off when i put it to sleep

This problem recently started where when I click to sleep on my pc, all the lights will stay on and the fans will run for a few minutes before they stop, and then when I turn it back on, it’s restarts, meaning my pc shut down instead of sleeping. I sometimes get a blue screen saying something went wrong and sometimes I don’t get it. I’m not sure what to do, and I don’t want to have to shut my pc down every time I get off of it because it won’t sleep. Another small detail is that when it starts back up from shutting down I can put it to sleep and it does like it should, but then it seems that the second time I try to put it to sleep it has the issue and shuts down again. Please help me, thank you.

 

when i shut down or put to sleep my PC it wakes up again

So, yeah, I don't have much to say. I saw another guy who had a kind of similar problem, but I didn't find the answer there. When I shut down or put to sleep my PC it automatically powers up again. I don't do anything, just shut it down or put it to sleep then walk away. Any ideas?
