  1. win7 update to 10 -> sleep issues, must i clean install??


    Hello

    my problem is i have a laptop. configured to sleep when button or lid is pressed. i can now close the lid... and my baby lil fan still runs like nothing happened. overnight even! when i open the lid, i am presented with logon screen so windows KNOWS it was closed... it just doesn't actually sleep. it doesn't ever stop its fan. it doesnt sleep then wake up it just DOESNT SLEEP!

    I've been reading some threads here about the issue. i don't have misbehaving drivers ... /lastwake shows some random scheduled update that reboots the computer. nothing suspicious, no mouse or network card (none are allowed to wake).

    The only solution seems to be clean install. IS this correct?? How does M$ force us to update then do such a piss poor job of it?? how is this acceptable?? cuz it's 'free'???

    Just grasping at straws, any other options? i might have to wait many months before clean install because i have many programs.

    thanks for ideas.

    :)

    Black Hang screen after windows 10 updates

    Had similar issue with win7 -> win10 upgrade Lenovo T410.

    Coming out from Sleep it said "graphic not responding".

    Graphic driver update fixed it. now all OK.

  3. Sleep Mode running Windows 10

    The problem with getting your computer to go into sleep mode must be an issue with the operating systems. I have read through many posts regarding this problem and there has been no clear solution offered up. Getting computer to go to sleep automatically
    after the designated period in Settings > Power and Sleep > Sleep does not work. We should have received some communication by now from the Microsoft development team for Windows 10. They must be asleep.

    win7 update to 10 -> sleep issues, must i clean install??

    You are correct, having a laptop is a problem *chuckle

    But seriously, Why do you think a clean install would fix it ?

    Have you tried hibernation instead of sleep ?

    Go over your power options again, make sure you aren`t missing something.

  5. the google saved me!

    ok so i had a desktop taht i also updated and was doing the same thing until i clean installed. actually, the interns that wrote the update program did such a bad job that even though they removed windows media center in 10, my win10 was still waking up in middle of night to do mceupdate.exe ... effing retards. anyhoo. once i fixed that, it still wouldn't sleep until i fresh insatalled out of frustration.

    so perhaps a slightly more competent group of interns did the fresh install program.

    SOLUTION: open elevated command prompt, type powercfg requestsoverride srvnet ... then i went into the powerconfig and disabled wake timers for every plan setting because M$.

    now i can close the lid and have the thing stop like normal. i will do the updates manually i guess.

    thanks for listening. so bad. so bad their upgrade and install programs. i'd be ashamed if i worked at M$ and shipped this garbage.
