  1. When the computer wakes up from sleep Only for the sleep caused by idling, It does not seem...


    Sequence of events to replicate this:

    Let the PC idle for 30 minutes -> It goes into a sleep mode.

    Wake it up Either by keyboard/mouse/power button...etc


    At this point, clicking windows button/Trying to open task manager/Try to open any executable apps chrome, file explorer, games...etc returns nothing.


    Only way to fix it is to restart the computer.


    My Windows 10 had issues where it would wake up from sleep with 0 input from the user after 0.2 ~1 hr from the moment the user puts it asleep. I disabled every input source that could wake it up, only leaving the power button to be the only source that could wake up the PC, it still woke up on its own after some period of time.


    That was resolved when I reinstalled Windows 10. Now I am having this issue of the windows not able to execute anything when woken up from sleep that it fell into from inactivity. On the other hand, if I make the computer sleep, it wakes up and works just fine.


    System Spec:

    I-7 7800X

    32GB RAM cant remember the MHz

    Asrock Z370 Taichi Motherboard

    256GB M.2 - EVO 970 Samsung

    GTX1080

  2. Computer Wakes Up From Sleep And Goes Back To Sleep?

    Hmm, lazy computer! *Roll Eyes When the computer wakes up from sleep Only for the sleep caused by idling, It does not seem... :rolleyes:

    Sorry for that stupid line, I couldn't resist. *Frown When the computer wakes up from sleep Only for the sleep caused by idling, It does not seem... :(

    Maybe you have something configured to sleep when idle. Check that on your power settings.

  3. wake from sleep issue in windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your reply. Apologize for the delay in response.

    I suggest you to check which devices are configured to wake up the computer from sleep by following the steps below:

    • Right click on Start icon and select Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type the command line below:
    Powercfg /devicequery wake_armed

    3. Check if the devices (Keyboard, Mouse, Ethernet cable) are listed.

    If the system is not going to sleep and going to Hybernate, the only option to wake up is to press the Power button.

    Hope the information is helpful.

    Computer will not sleep.


    My computer that I've just installed Win 10 on wakes immediately after putting to sleep.

    I've tried all things listed in this thread.

    I've gone into the event viewer and filtered on Power Troubleshooter in Event sources for waking, and it indicates Unknown Source.

    I've check to see that the NW Adapter is set to allow wake, magic packets only.

    The Allow Wake Timers in Power settings is set to Important Wake Timers only.

    I've disconnected all USB devices just for testing the sleep.

    I've run out of ideas. I'll be searching more on Google. But if any other thoughts/suggestions, it's appreciated.
