Windows 10: Desktop crashes when/after entering sleep mode in Windows 10.

Recently whenever I click sleep in the Windows menu bar my desktop will start to power down like usual disabling keyboard, monitor, etc. but the PC lights and fans won't turn off for about 5 minutes. Usually this process to enter sleep mode takes less than 30 seconds. The Desktop will then proceed to crash. Meaning I have to power it back on through the power button. The first time it did this was a couple days ago on the 14 Friday night. I have noticed that the PC can go to sleep normally if the PC has only been on for about 30 minutes. I don't know the exact time it stops working but aft

Windows 11 Desktop Won't Enter Sleep Mode

I upgraded to Windows 11 last fall (November) and for the most part everything has been working ok. Within the last month, I've had an issue where my desktop will not enter sleep mode. If I select sleep, my keyboard and mouse will shut off but my desktop will idle with the fan periodically cycling for about ten minutes before the desktop shuts off altogether. The only way I can turn my PC back on is by using the power button, which reboots the device.

There are two other issues that have started around the same time, which may or may not be related to the above:

• when I connect to my second monitor, a number of icon images on the start bar on the second monitor won't display
  
• a few times while using Google Chrome, my PC slows down considerably, the memory used by Chrome maxes out in Task Manager (and stays maxed out even when I shut Chrome off), and I am unable to see anything I type in any application I have open (not just Chrome) unless I alt-tab between applications - I have to restart for my PC to become usable
  

I've tried a number of suggestions related to fixing the sleep mode issue but none have worked for me so far. Here's what I've tried:

• Run the power troubleshooter
  
• Disabled my network adapter from waking the computer
  
• Using powercfg to disable processes that disrupt sleep mode
  
• Disabled fast startup
  
• Tried a clean boot and had the same issue
  
• Updated the latest drivers, Windows 11 updates, and BIOS version
  
• Disabled hybrid mode
  
• Scanned for viruses
  
• Ran system file checker and DISM tool
  
• Deleted the hiberfil.sys file
  

I have a X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming motherboard and AMD Ryzen 5 2600X CPU. Any thoughts or suggestions on other things to try would be much appreciated!

 

Windows 10 crashes when entering sleep mode

Hello,

A week ago I (finally) updated my laptop from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Soon I realized my laptop kept running when I closed the screen.

Yesterday I tried the shortcut to get it in sleep mode and saw the blue crash screen pop-up when it enters sleep mode. It gives the blue crash screen, and then restarts the laptop. The error code which shows up on the bottom right of the blue screen is "bugcode
NDIS driver".

I have an Acer Aspire V3-571, and used the Windows 10 upgrade program from Windows to update to Win 10.

I already tried changing driver version of the Intel Management Engine but had no luck so far. Hopefully the community can help me!

 

Desktop will not automatically enter sleep mode

I've changed power settings (included the advanced settings) to allow sleep to automatically occur after 10 minutes, but the computer doesn't go into sleep mode. It previously went to sleep automatically, but apparently some automatic system updates have
changed that feature. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
