    PC hibernates / goes into sleep mode upon logout / screen lock

    I am using my work computer. It's a laptop with a power connection (not running on battery.) The laptop is hocked up to two monitors (a total of three monitors, counting the laptop's own screen - I usually keep my laptop closed, however.)
    Since I am at work I always lock the screen when I leave my computer. (I use the windows+L shortcut to lock the screen.) This all works fine.

    However, after about a minute the computer goes into sleep mode / hibernation. At least I think it does, because the two monitors goes black - and it takes a few seconds to "wake up the system" (the monitors doesn't come back to life immediately when I press a key on the keyboard / move the mouse, as they would if a screen saver was active.)
    This is very annoying if I step away from my computer for only a short while (like going to the bathroom.)

    Here's what I want:
    With power (not running on battery):
    When I lock the screen, I want the screen to stay on for 1 minute, then go to screen saver for 15 minutes, then go to hibernation/sleep mode.

    Without power (running on battery):
    When I lock the screen, I want the screen to stay on for 1 minute, then go to screen saver for 5 minutes, then go to hibernation/sleep mode.

    My best bet is that this is some sort of power saving scheme thingie, but I can't seem to figure out how to configure it to do what I want. Can someone please help me with a step-by-step guide to configure my system the way I want? Thank you.
     
  3. Windows 11 cannot enter sleep while setting "Screen: turn off after 15 minutes"(default) and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after 1 minute" then idle 1 minute

    Hi Guys,

    I am meeting an unexpected behavior: Windows 11 cannot enter sleep while setting "Screen: turn off after 15 minutes"(default) and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after 1 minute" then idle 1 minute.

    Ideally, Windows would follow the power option setting, while the system idle 1 minute, the system will go to sleep, but fail, and Windows keeps working.

    Then, I change the power settings: "Screen: turn off after 1minute" and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after 1 minute", setting done, idle 1 minute, system goes to sleep. and wakeup by KB normally. Once setting the same time value of "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after x minute" and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after x minute", Windows goes to sleep after idle x minutes. I thought my hardware and driver were set correctly. Manual let system enter sleep, it works normally, and wakeup success.

    My questions are:

    1. Could someone tell me what happens of above hebavior?

    2. What is the interaction between power option "turn off after" and "PC goes to sleep after"?

    3. Is there any setting limitation of "Screen: turn off after x minutes" and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after x minute"?

    LAPTOP NOT ENTERING INTO SLEEP MODE

    I am experiencing a sleep problem with my laptop. Whenever I attempt to put it in sleep mode, it only gets locked and doesn't actually enter sleep mode. It remains active and only becomes locked, failing to enter sleep mode. Additionally, the power button light doesn't blink as it should in sleep mode; instead, it remains steady.
