  1. Windows 10 suddenly cannot wake from sleep


    My Windows 10 desktop suddenly cannot wake from sleep. It goes to sleep fine, but when woken my monitors continue receiving no input. It stays like this for around 2 minutes until the computer than restarts to the BIOS and welcome screen.


    I haven't been able to pinpoint where this problem is coming from, or how it started. Help!


    Thank you.

    :)

  2. 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.
