Sleep mode in windows 8.1

I installed Windows 8.1, 23/10/13  and the sleep mode does not work.

Hi,
Please check this option: Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Sharing Center\Media streaming options.
If it was turned on, please turn all off to check the issue.
If it persists, please run this command:
powercfg -energy
Please check the output of this command, find which option is preventing sleep and fix it.
Any question of this step, please upload your energy report here for my research and the event log.
Keep post.
Regards,
Kate Li

  • USB Ports don't work after sleep mode on Windows 7 Pro 64 bit

    I have been using my laptop for about a month without a problem, but over the last week or two I have had a problem where I lose access to all of my USB ports when resuming from sleep mode. If I go into hybernate or restart the computer, the ports
    miraculously return. The techs at the manufacturer can't figure it out and wanted me to do a full system restore, which is a little too drastic a solution! The only real thing I can connect it to, is I had to use Virtual PC (XP) around the time this
    started.

    Hi Greg,
    Microsoft has been fixed this problem, but it is not successful with all PC/Notebook manufacturers. So, the OEM developers itself started giving patch for this issue. I have seen the patch upto Windows Vista version. Lenovo, HP, Dell and other people
    are providing this patch. Sony is providing this patch for some selective models. Go to sony support, enter or auto detect your model and check for the update. With Windows 7 SP1 your USB drives should work properly.
    Anyway, check the below sony support link to understand how to wake up a USB drive after sleep in Vista, Do the equivalent modification in your Windows 7 PC registry. It will work for you.

  • Laptop doesn't wake after sleep mode after Windows 10 update

    I usually lower the laptop lid when i want to put it into sleep mode; after the windows 10 update, this stopped working. I tried putting it into sleep mode from the start menue. This causes the screen to become black, but power to remain on ( I can see this from a steady light from the power button whereas sleep would have a flashing power button). The laptop's fan also increases in speed. When I try to wake the laptop, nothing happenes; I have tried to use ctrl+alt+delete, however this also does not work. I am ususally forced to resort to a manual shut down via holding the power button for a few second and restarting the laptop. I have tried updating the display adapters, restarted the laptop, and still no result. Does anyone know why this is happenning and how I can fix it?

    I was having the Exact Same Issue. The reason I decided to go back to windows 8 was because since upgrading to Windows 10, when my computer goes into sleep mode, I cannot wake it up. I have to press and hold the power button to shut it done and restart. Even if I close my laptop, and reopen the lid, it wont start back up and I have to press and hold the power button and shut it down and restart.  After trying to restore my HP Envy Laptop from Windows 10 to Windows 8, it got stuck in a Repair PC Loop and I could not even access the desktop, I tried the restore option to an earlier date and that failed and all the repair options also failed. The last option I had was to do a full PC Refresh, and that one worked. It took about an hour but no data was lost, and only a few of my downloaded apps were removed. An html url was left on the desktop that showed a list of all the apps that were removed. So all I did was download those back and now im back up and running Windows 8.

    Hello mistyb1,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with the printer not waking up from Sleep Mode.
    I do have a few suggestions that we can try.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Once you have the printer connected to the wall outlet, please use the ON/OFF button to do a proper power cycle.  This will do a Semi power reset on the printer.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

  • Sleep Mode in Windows 10 Does not work

    Ever since I upgraded to Windows 10 Sleep mode does not work properly when closing the lid or pressing the shutdown button when you set these to sleep.  I have updated the BIOS, Intel Chip Set Drivers, and Video Driver to the latest.  All HP and Windows UPdates installed. Problem is not everthing goes to sleep, typically my ethernet connection, audio and fan stay on.  Must use the Power Button and Hold to recover.  Each time I close the lid and open it I have a black screen.  I can tell when it is not going to sleep by noticing the Ethernet jack is still lit and the fan making noise after closing the lid or pressing the power button. Here's the kicker, make a change to any of the power settings, save and come back into them and reset to sleep and it will work with the lid ONE TIME ONLY.   There after its back to never working, never fully sleeping and having to reboot. Need Help.

    I just discovered that HP has posted a new support page for people who are having issues with the computers after converting to Win 10. I was particularly interested in the section on issues with Sleep/Hibernation and found this whole page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03383935 Looks like apart from the driver issue, it could be that the settings in the Device Manager for your KEYBOARD are not set correctly!!! - yeah, that's what I said.  Anyway, the full resource is located here and may be of some help. http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04773236/ PS: I also checked to see if there were new drivers for my notebooks and see that it has now been two days since they were last updated. Perhaps there is hope!

  • T60 2 loud beeps before machine goes into sleep mode; eventually windows 7 crashes

    I'm seeing the above symptoms - recently had a hard drive fail so I installed windows 7 clean and then the various lenovo utilities/drivers, have a few issues leftover.  Suggestions?

    Hi glangston, 
    I think it's probably because you're missing a driver or two like lenovo power management etc. Make sure these kinds of drivers are installed. 
    I also suggest running complete diagnostic test on your system using lenovo toolobox:- http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-67520.html
    Hope it helps.

  • Satellite L505D - Problem with sleep mode in Win 7

    It's me again, in last thread :
    "Hello Friends,
    I have a great problem after Windows 7 updated itself. I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L505D. When I close the lid, it should automatically go to the sleep mode. Unfortunately, only the screen is black and the laptop is still running, I have to shut it down then switch on again. Is it a problem with the 'battery driver'?Please, help me :)"
    The sleep mode worked perfeclty for couple of days and it is again gone.. What is more when I try to enter the sleep mode I can't do anything on the notebook , it is still running on blank screen and the processors' fan is working on high speed. During these last days, when the sleep mode worked, windows didn't update itself..
    I don't know what is happening.. :) Weird problem, isn't it?

    It is not easy to say why this happen. In your last posting you wrote about some windows updates. Who knows what is wrong there.
    If nothing helps, not even system restore and you want to use stand-by mode I recommend you to back-up all your data and install OS again using recovery mode.
    With factory settings everything will be OK again but then be careful with updates.

  • Satellite P850-30W - Fan does not run after coming back from sleep mode

    I got a Toshiba Satellite P850-30W with bios 1.90.
    Sometimes the fan does not run at all after coming back from sleep mode on windows 7.
    This has happened twice (maybe more times without me knowing), and Ive had the computers for a month.
    Normally the fan starts running when the CPU gets over 50 celsius, and stops under 50 celisus...
    I tried running Prime95 when this fan-issue occured and the computer temps got dangerously high (close to 100 degree)! the fan did not start at all
    ...this error could potentinally damage the laptop...
    to get the fan running again I have to restart windows
    anyone else experienced this?
    I guess the fix would be to never use sleep-mode...or toshiba needs to fix it with a bios update.

    What kind of answer do you expect here in user community?
    Exact info about the fault? I dont think that somebody would be able to provide exact answer but just speculations
    In other Forum you can read about Satellite notebook; but is it exacts the same model?
    No, it seems to be an L650 series. Its completely different series .
    From my opinion its not software related problem.
    BIOS issue?
    Well, in case it would be a BIOS issue, the problem would appear always and not sometimes after being shut down 200 times.
    It could be a hardware related issue. Memory? Maybe
    In my personal opinion to get more details hardware diagnostic software should be used in order check the hardware for possible malfunction. Thats my personal opinion

  • P67A-GD65 (B3) slow after sleep mode

    I'm having some problems with sleep mode in Windows 7 64 bit. Whenever I try to come out of sleep it comes out fine but then the computer seems to run a little slower. It's not very noticeable until you play a game, the frame rate is just atrocious but once I restart it's back to normal. At the moment it's set to go into a S3 state. Would a BIOS flash fix this problem or am I missing something here? I can shut it down for now but I like sleep mode and want to use it but I won't unless I can fix this issue.
    Added by Mod
    First my specs:
    P67A-GD65 (B3)
    Intel i5 3.3 Mhz (Turbo Boost is OC'd to 4.2) Sandybridge
    CM Hyper 212+ Cooler
    G Skill 2X4GB 1600 Mhz DDR3
    HD4850
    Corsair CMPSU-TX750
    WD 1TB Caviar Black

    I've experienced something similar a few months back.  The cause of it was that some drivers (can't recall which.. I think it was the marvell but I could be wrong.
    What was happening was that everytime I'd go to sleep and return, I'd suddenly get tons of interrupts (can be seen with Process Explorer from SysInternals - Microsoft).
    Replacing the drivers with an older version fixed it so that now I can sleep/wake tons of times without any issues anymore.
    So first step is to determine what's taking your CPU juice.  Get Process Explorer & by default, it'll show you which process takes the most CPU.   On my setup with a i7 2600k, 12% of the CPU was taken JUST for the interrupts!!  when it's usually 0.01% or so now.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium Crashes in Sleep Mode

    Over the last few days my Windows 7 PC refuses to wake up from sleep mode.  
    My configuration is as follows:
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit 
    Asus P8Z77-V-LE Plus Motherbaord (BIOS 0910)
    Intel Core i7-3770 
    Samsung 830 SSD
    Corsair Vengence RAM (16 Gbytes)
    EVGA GeForce GTX660 
    I have not made any changes to the machine and I don't think the hardware is a problem as the system does not crash when I disable sleep mode.  I try to keep my drivers current and my system clean.  Virus scans using Avast, Malwarebytes (on demand)
    and Microsoft's own Malicious Software Removal tool all come back clean.
    Each crash is recorded in an event log entry that looks like this

    Bug check description: This indicates that Microsoft Windows or a kernel-mode driver accessed paged memory at DISPATCH_LEVEL or above.
    This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem. 
    The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time. 
    I tried to analyze install the SDK to analyze the MiniDump files but the installation keeps failing.
    My most recent mindump  - the last one before I tuned off sleep mode - is here

    My impression is that an analysis of the dump file will help me zero in on the fault.
    hope I can get some help on this and please let me know if I left out anything
    Thanks in advance.

    The DMP file is inconclusive. You could run driver verifier to find the underlying issue but WPR is often easier.
    In order to diagnose your problem you will need to download and install the below
    Install the WPT (windows Performance Toolkit) 
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652
    Help with installation (if needed) is here
    When you have, open an elevated command prompt and type the following 
    WPRUI.exe (which is the windows performance recorder) and check off the boxes for the following:
    First level triage, CPU usage, Disk IO.  
    If you problem is not CPU or HD then check off the relevant box/s as well (for example networking or registry)  Please configure your as per the below snip
    Click Start
    It will reboot 3 t imes and record the data to a file and tell you its name and location.
    Zip the file and upload to us on Onedrive (or any file sharing service) and give us a link to it in your next post.
    These crashes were related to memory corruption (probably caused by a driver). 
    Please run these tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.  
    If you are overclocking (pushing the components beyond their design) you should revert to default at least until the crashing is solved. If you don't
    know what it is you probably are not overclocking.
    Since it is more likely to be a driver please run verifier first.
    1-Driver verifier (for complete directions see our wiki here)
    If verifier does not find the issue we can move on to this.
    2-Memtest. (You can read more about running memtest here)

    Hi olagoke,
    Did the issue occur accidently , have you installed any software recently?
    First of all, please install the latest drivers for the machine and update the BIOS to check whether the issue is gone.
    Apart from this, I agree with the Clean Boot , Device Clean Boot and Powercfg command solutions involved in the link posted by
