  1. Move the mouse to wake computer from sleep mode?


    I've seen old posts about this but nothing in the past few months, and the older posts don't seem to describe what I'm seeing.


    I have a brand new Dell Inspiron 15 laptop with Windows 10 - just received it yesterday. When it goes to sleep, I can only seem to wake it by using the power button. I'd like to be able to just move the mouse or hit a key and start working.


    The power plan settings show that it is not in 'hibernate', just sleep, after 20 minutes plugged in.


    When I look at the mouse properties, the tabs are General / Driver / Details / Events. Other threads mentioned a "Power Management" tab, but I'm not seeing one. Not sure why it is missing!


    Any SIMPLE way to do this? I am not technical at all...


    Thanks!

    No internet when computer wakes from sleep mode

    No Internet when computer wakes from sleep mode or from cold start until I disable the Local area connection and then enable it.

    When I run the diagnostic after it fixes the connection it says this: Local Area connection doesn't have a valid IP configuration - Fixed

    But its not fixed. Every time I wake my computer up from sleep mode after its been in sleep mode for a few hours I have to disable and then enable the Local area connection.

    When the computer wakes up it has a yellow triangle warning of limited or no internet access. So I have to do the above every time I wake it up.

    Things I've done so far: Update drivers, No fix.

    ASUS Laptop Won't Wake from Sleep Mode

    OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
    Version 10.0.18363 Build 18363
    System Manufacturer ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
    System Model UX490UAR
    System Type x64-based PC
    SMBIOS Version 3.0

    Problem: about 80% of the time, my laptop won't wake up from sleep mode via keyboard press or mouse move/click. I seem to be missing many common features in power plan too, even after fresh Windows 10 install.

    Troubleshooting Steps:

    1. Reinstalled Windows 10 (clean)
    2. Updated all drivers
    3. Replicated on multiple Windows 10 versions, updates
    4. BIOS latest version
    5. No USB devices attached, ever. Only USB-C power and bluetooth mouse
    6. Disabled "fast startup" in control panel
