    Only way I've found is a workaround where you wake your computer up with the keyboard or mouse. As long as you don't wake it up with the power button it should go to sleep with the power button.

    I was able to update my BIOS to a later version (despite only being released in 2013)
    This appeared to fix the issue, it now goes to sleep everytime i press the power button. I believe if you just re-install your BIOS after the WIN10 upgrade, this could re-install the ACPI functions, thus allowing it to work.
