    enable this device to wake from sleep is greyed out


    I have lenovo miix 510 -12isk running the latest windows. Since updating windows, waking from sleep with the keyboard takes about ten seconds whereas with the previous windows it was more or less instant. Also the touch screen will not wake the tablet from sleep. In device manager, power management, the wacom device which is the touch screen control board has "allow this device to wake from sleep" greyed out.Is there any way possibly registry I can get this option back so that i can get the touch screen to wake the tablet

    :)

  2. Audio device unrecognised after waking from sleep


    From time to time I wake my laptop from sleep and find that the audio driver (Conexant Venice) is no longer loaded. The audio hardware is listed in the Device Manager as just "base system device" (or two base system devices, to be precise). Rebooting fixes the problem each time, but it takes a while. Is there a quicker way to make the audio work again than rebooting? I've tried obvious steps like running the troubleshooter and disabling and then re-enabling the devices.

    Stay in sleep and wake with spacebar

    Hi, you can disable hibernation if you wish:
    Enable or Disable Hibernate in Windows 10

    This depends what devices are able to wake your PC. You can list these:

    Powercfg /devicequery /.......
    Description:
    Returns a list of devices that meet the specified criteria.

    Parameter List:
    <QUERYFLAG> Specifies one of the following criteria:

    wake_from_S1_supported ....Return all devices that support waking the system
    from a light sleep state.
    wake_from_S2_supported ....Return all devices that support waking the system
    from a deeper sleep state.
    wake_from_S3_supported ....Return all devices that support waking the system
    from the deepest sleep state.
    wake_from_any ......................Return all devices that support waking the system
    from any sleep state.

    S1_supported List devices supporting light sleep.
    S2_supported List devices supporting deeper sleep.
    S3_supported List devices supporting deepest sleep.
    S4_supported List devices supporting hibernation.
    wake_programmable List devices that are user-configurable to wake
    the system from a sleep state.
    wake_armed List devices that are currently configured to
    wake the system from any sleep state.
    all_devices Return all devices present in the system.

    wake from sleep issue in windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your reply. Apologize for the delay in response.

    I suggest you to check which devices are configured to wake up the computer from sleep by following the steps below:

    • Right click on Start icon and select Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type the command line below:
    Powercfg /devicequery wake_armed

    3. Check if the devices (Keyboard, Mouse, Ethernet cable) are listed.

    If the system is not going to sleep and going to Hybernate, the only option to wake up is to press the Power button.

    Hope the information is helpful.
