  1. PC Won't go into sleep mode. NEED HELP


    Hello,

    So I'm having a problem with my pc not going into sleep mode. I have run the troubleshooters for Microsoft in the power saving tab and it says it fixes it but nothing changes. In the end, my pc stays on and running and it is very bright and literally won't let me go to sleep at night when I want it to just go into sleep mode automatically. I believe this must be an MS issue and wanted to know if there's any way to track what could be keeping my pc from going into sleep mode save something on the coned bill. I have a 10700k if that matters.

    PC Won't go into sleep mode. NEED HELP

    Sleep Mode... It won't wake up!

    No go still. *Frown PC Won't go into sleep mode. NEED HELP :(

    Thanks suraswami for the suggestion.

    Ok. I reset the BIOS to defaults, and S3, and now when I tell the computer to go into standby, it appears to save everything to memory, and then power off. It's like the PC thinks sleep means hibernate.

    So, OK. I tried turning off hybrid sleep, and now when I went to sleep, the PC just powered off. And when I tried powering back on, Windows said it was shutdown unexpectedly.

    Now I've tried swapping out each pair of 1GB sticks (4 sticks total for 4GB) in all four slots in different configurations. On each time, it displays the same symptoms: When I try to resume, I can hear drives spin up, and the fans will roar to full speed *and stay on full speed*. The screen will remain black, the HD led will not light at all. The power LED remains flashing blue. It will stay like that indefinitely. I have to force power off by holding the power button. So, unless all four sticks of RAM happen to be bad, I doubt this is the culprit.

    Any suggestions? S1 sleep mode in the BIOS works fine, although, like you mention, it's not ideal. I can hibernate the PC just fine. I'd like S3 to work, ideally.

    Thanks.
