Windows 10: Sleep mode requires pc button to wake

Windows 10 Home (X64) Version 1703 (build 150615.332)
HP HP Pavilion Desktop PC 570-pOXX
New computor (3 weeks). I have carefully set up Power settings to not hibernate, no hibrid sleep, turn off display after 5 minutes, and sleep after 1 hour. But after sleeping for about an hour the computer will not wake from keyboard or mouse; I must hit the pc switch. The waking then takes a few seconds longer while I look at the HP circle and then the lock screen. Not a disaster but annoying. Any thoughts?

Dell Precision Workstation T5500 will not wake from Sleep Mode

If I allow my Dell Precision Workstation T5500 to enter sleep mode, or place it in sleep mode myself, the PC will not wake unless I hold the power button in to drain all electrons..

Moving the mouse, tapping the keyboard, a "quick" push of the power button results in nothing but a 'zombie' PC....

I assume I should be able to place a Dell Precision Workstation T5500 in Sleep Mode, and wake it?

(This is a PC, not a Laptop)

I also have the same issue here are my observations. When trying to wake the PC from sleep mode: There is a
very brief hard drive response, the hard drive stops, with a message "entering sleep mode", No additional inputs from the "ESC" key or mouse have any effect in waking the system, the PC goes back to sleep mode.
At this point a "hard shutdown" is required to get the PC operational.

 

Try removing ACPI, keyboard and mouse drivers and hardware from Device Manager and reboot. Most likely the task to check for the IRQ is missing or screwed up.

 

Ok, I'll try that. Thanks.

 

While you're in Device Manager, r-click the mouse/properties and check that it's enabled to wake computer

 

Yup, already set. ACPI is not present.

 

If this is a USB keyboard, make sure that Legacy is enabled in the Bios. If a wireless keyboard, it can cause issues with the motherboard, so you may want to check for a bios update.

Fill out your system spec's with all info, also post model and manufacturer of the computer if you bought already built from an OEM or the motherboard if you had it built.

There are some wireless keyboards out there that are finicky with Windows. Another fix is to disable Hibernation with Powercfg /hibernate off. Windows power troubleshooter used to work. See if this will help. http://www.thewindowsclub.com/window...rom-sleep-mode

 

thanks, bro67. Whatever gremlins inhabit my realm have relented and the mouse-wake is working. I will mark this as solved.

 

When you put the computer to sleep don't use any sleep shortcuts if your keyboard supports it. When I use to use them I had major sleep issues. My PC would wake up but the sleep light would still be blinking and I had to hold down the power button to turn it off and on again. Since using the actually sleep menu not the keyboard it does not do it as much when before it was doing to every time I woke it up.

 

Well, I do use a Hotkeyp keyboard macro to put it to sleep manually. But mostly I allow the timer set in Power Configuration to wait an hour and then sleep it.

 

PC did not wake up again. Had to hold the power to turn it off and reboot. Really annoying. I give up.

 

8.1 had a sleep problem for some. Never did find a global fix for all, but some resolved it for their particular system. You might want to search through this 8F thread.
