    Windows 10 freeze & power off instead of sleep


    When I put the computer to sleep mode, often but not always the system freezes for a couple of minutes with a black screen and then power off instead of sleep. Note: it does not reboot, the computer has to be turned on manually. So far I can't see any significant pattern in when it fails. I cant see a trace in system logs when the OS shutdowns. The only related events sorry, the messages are localized so I do not know the exact lines in English that I see are: "The system goes to sleep mode" by Kernel-Power "The previous shutdown was unexpected" by EventLog "Success status of the last shu

    Windows 10 power issues and freezing

    Apology ahead of time if this problem is in the wrong category, I did not know if it should go into power & sleep or system failures as I am experiencing both, please direct me on that if you could.

    Hello, I have a problem that has been driving me crazy for the past two weeks or so and I can not seem to find any answers online. My Windows 10 pc is randomly freezing at startup sometimes and having other power issues that I will outline below.

    Hardware

    • OS: Windows 10 Home v1903
    • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @2.67 GHz 2.67 GHz
    • Installed RAM: 12.0 GB
    • Graphics: Nvidia GTX 720Ti
    Issues

    • Randomly freezes sometimes up to a minute after windows 10 desktop loads, if it gets past that initial time frame it will work for the entire run time until next boot
    • Sleep mode does not function, the computer will act as if in sleep mode shutting off displays but will power down and restart when I try to wake with a mouse or keyboard
    • Shutting down sometimes causes the computer to restart instead of just shutting down
    Troubleshooting I have performed already (they didn't help so please don't suggest them)

    • Run Windows troubleshooting tool in all categories
    • Run Windows defender scan
    • Run Windows check for updates
    • Unplugging all USB ports and restarting PC
    • Restarted PC
    • Run a disk check on all hard drives
    • Optimized all hard drives
    • Performed a memory check
    • Disabled all startup programs
    • Changed power settings to different plans and set hard drive to never turn off and PCI-E power-saving settings to off
    • Restored Windows 10 from the settings app
    • Restored Windows 10 from recovery disk drive
    • Performed a driver stress test
    • Run in safe mode(It did not freeze but still had the power problems I mentioned above)
    All of my software and hardware tests have turned up good so I am at a loss for this problem. If you have any suggestions or guesses for solving this problem please help me out.
