    Windows 11 cannot find my second drive after waking up from sleep


    This is a brand new built PC, and I've already installed Windows 11 twice, but the problem persists. Upon waking up from sleep mode, Windows cannot find my second drive assigned letter D, disk management will not open shows an error when I try, and device manager doesn't see it. In order to fix this problem, I must restart my computer every time.This only happens when the computer comes back from sleep mode. If I put it into hibernate, it doesn't happen. When I restart it, everything is as normal. UEFI always sees the drive. Of course, it's irritating to have to restart the PC every time i

  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.

    Computer does not wake up normally only after second sleep

    Hi,

    I have a new laptop (Mechrevo Code 01 R7) and the following issue has been bugging me - after turning on the computer, if I put it to sleep, it wakes up normally. Then when I put it back to sleep again (either right away or in an hour), the computer does
    not wake up normally and I must hard restart. A few observations:

    • After the first sleep, I can wake it up with touchpad, mouse, or keyboard. After the second sleep, the keyboard back light, optical mouse, and cooling fans turn on as expected, but the display does not. Caps lock key does not function. It did not work to
      press the sleep keys (Fn + f2), Esc, power, or any key for that matter.

    • When I put the computer to sleep for the second time, the screen flashes briefly into the screen protector picture before turning off. This does not happen when I put it to sleep for the first time.

    • Unlike sleep, hibernation works fine. Hibernation also "resets the count" before the computer fails to wake from sleep, i.e. if I put it to sleep, then wake and hibernate, followed by waking and sleeping, the computer can wake up normally.

    • I have tried everything I could find online so far, as well as resetting the computer to factory settings, to no avail.
    For now my workaround is to always use hibernation instead of sleep. It would, however, be nice if I could use sleep for a quick break and not have to hibernate every time I walk away. Thanks fo your help in advance.
