    did the latest updates mess up Sleep mode? Hang, crash


    I've noticed more sleep hangs and even shutdowns while in sleep mode, oddly.

    I haven't installed anything new. Only updates have been installed.


    Sleep will not complete. It goes half asleep, and won't wake up on key press.

    Also one time it shutdown after sleep mode was logged in Event Viewer. That's the first time I've seen this happen.
    Event viewer logged it as an improper shutdown.


    I've disabled the idle sleep timer for now.

    but wondering if anyone else is seeing sleep problems lately

    :)

  2. sleep mode and power options not working on Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Forums.

    For issues with sleep mode and power options follow the steps provided below.

    Run the Power troubleshooter and check.

    Follow the steps to run the troubleshooter:

    • Open Control Panel.
    • Type Troubleshooting in search and click
      Troubleshooting.
    • Now type Power in the search option.
    • Click on Power troubleshooter to run.

    I would suggest you to try updating the Display driver and check if the issue persists. If you already have all the latest drivers from Windows updates, then I would suggest you to visit the computer manufacturer's website, download and install the latest
    drivers in compatibility mode and check.

    Hope this helps.

    Laptop randomly hangs while in sleep mode

    Good thing I kept the reports. did the latest updates mess up Sleep mode? Hang, crash :) Attached below. Don't know why the other thread disappeared -- maybe because it wasn't a real BSOD?

    Looks like chkdsk /r /v has to be run at boot time, and many of the next steps (installing drivers, etc) are going to take more time than I have today. I'll get back to it later.

    The HP Diagnostics at that link is only a 32-bit app. The only Hardware Diagnostics I see on my laptop is just a log file. Should I run the UEFI tests?

    HD Tune: I let it sit on the Health tab for quite a while and nothing happened. I tried hitting Update, I set it to 1-minute update, nothin'. The Log is empty too.
