    Desktop will not stay asleep


    Since I put a wired mouse in b/c my wireless one failed, the pc won't stay asleep. I since put the wireless one in and after a Logitech driver install the wireless one works. I down loaded the driver from Logitech and set pint -it is a M310 and keyboard is K520 No trouble till wireless mouse acted up. I am again using the wired one since Logitech driver installed and the mouse functioned again. I have wired one aside and am thinking of seeing if that works with sleep but don't see how. I did a Macrium recovery and the second mouse has now gone from device manager where I have been checking and unchecking boxes that put the pc to sleep. I have tried power management and tried defaults. it seems to stay asleep for while then wakes up almost the opposite of what it should do. Do you have a fix for this ? There are so many places to enable or disable sleep it is hard to identify. i have been at it for days now. I am afraid the pc will bun out running all the time and not sleeping.


    Sorry for the rambling -how can I get this desktop to awake after x amount of minutes? I have it set to default after all this trying.

    :)

    Computer Won't Stay Asleep

    Hi,

    Computer won't stay asleep due to countless culprits: an accidental swipe of the mouse, a scheduled system task, and any number of other weird settings that reside in Windows' power options. To fix the issue, you may disable the Ethernet adapter's so that system
    may stay asleep. To do so, you may follow the steps below:

    1. Open the Windows Device Manager.

    2. Click the plus next to Network adapters, then find the Ethernet adapter for your system.

    3. Right-click the adapter name and choose Properties.

    4. Click the Power Management tab, then clear the checkbox next to Allow this device to wake the computer.

    5. Click OK, then restart the computer.

    Update us with the result.
