Windows 10: When using restart or waking from sleep mode PC fails to re-boot

Hi,I am currently in the process of troubleshooting an issue I am having with restart and sleep mode PC specs at the bottom. I have carried out troubleshooting on my PC's hardware and cannot seem to identify the issue, so I am wondering if this could be a software related issue.When my PC goes into sleep mode, whenever I wake my PC I get a DRAM debug light on my motherboard. I have to force shutdown my PC using the power button, only then when I turn it back on will my PC start as normal.When restarting the system my PC appears to completely shut off, then turn back on after a few seconds, t

Windows 10 - Problem waking up from sleep mode

This worked for me on a Lenovo Horizon2 27 all-in-one PC that was able to sleep manually but could not be wakened once sleeping after upgrading to Windows 10 Home.

I ran the powercfg /energy and examined the report as GoWMike describes. It showed no driver errors but suggested that there is a problem with the system's "High Performance" power setting that may prevent normal waking from manually induced sleep.

I used powercfg /list to show available modes, copied the GUID for Balanced mode, and then used this with the powercfg /activate command to change the plan.

I also used powercfg /devicequery wake_from_any

to get a list of device names for components capable of waking the system from sleep, and then I used

powercfg /deviceenablewake <devicename>

to make certain that the touchscreen and power button are armed to wake the machine.

After restarting, sleep and wake then functioned properly again.

 

Restart when waking laptop from sleep mode


When I wake my HP laptop from sleep mode, it says there is a problem and needs to restart. Then it restarts. It didn't do this until I upgraded to Windows 10. Anyone else have this problem or have suggestions on how to fix it? Thank you for any assistance.
