  2. Laptop hibernates ONCE automatically after each login

    My laptop hibernates (saving exact state of the system) ONCE after logged into Windows in following two cases:

    First Case: After waking up from sleep and log into Windows, laptop will hibernate automatically within approximately 30 minutes (most of the time within 5 minutes).
    Second Case: After starting from (shutdown state) and log into Windows, laptop will hibernate automatically within approximately 30 minutes (most of the time within 5 minutes).

    NOTE: It does not hibernate when logged in after a restart (even if many times). Very rarely it has hibernated more than once (2nd hibernate happens within seconds of logging in after first hibernate).

    There is another problem (stating because may be related, please ignore if not): Sometimes cursor gets stuck in circle or circles on the screen (see gif attached). It is a touchscreen tablet. I can free the cursor with stylus or finger. Many Thanks in advance.

    laptop doesnt boot automatically

    This is what happened.

    1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
    2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
    3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
    4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
    5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
    6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

    I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

    Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.

    Windows 10 build 10586 hibernates after 5 minutes of sleep

    Hi,

    Recently I have upgraded my laptop to Windows 10 build 10586. and now, my laptop randomly hibernates after 5 minutes of sleep. I cannot revert back to the RTM build nor I can't do a system restore.

    I already have done the following:

    • Running the power troubleshooter
    • Restored the power schemes
    • sfc /scannow
    • tried to do a system restore point before it got deleted

    I would by glad if anyone has the solution

    Laptop that got effected: HP Notebook 15- af131dx
