Question Asus zenbook ux302 reboots upon waking from sleep

[OrangeLefty]

I have an Asus ZenBook UX302LG that has been gradually giving me trouble over the past year with its sleep/suspend/hibernate. It started out as every now and then, and has gotten worse to the point that it will no longer sleep.

What happens now, is if I tell it to sleep (even after just booting up), everything appears fine, but when I go to wake it up (even if its mere seconds later), the laptop will boot up as if I turned it off. Right back to the POST and bios startup everything.

I've recently

• Reinstalled and updated drivers
• Reloaded windows 10
• Flashed the bios
• Installed linux (ubuntu)

And the problem persists. I think I've ruled out that its not a driver or software/os issue. I'm leaning towards a hardware failure now. Could a bad CMOS battery be causing this? Could there be an issue on the motherboard that could be fixed (broken solder / loose connection ?) Anyone able to shed some light on what I can look at here? I'd hate to throw this laptop away for a silly issue like this.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Which BIOS version are you on for your laptop? Might want to see if you have any updates pending. If you do have a number of them, make sure you work your way up to the latest. Some BIOS updates require you to follow a sequence as well as maintaining an MEI update before you move onto another BIOS update.

Which version of Windows 10 are you currently on? By update, did you install all drivers found off of Asus's support site in an elevated command, i.e Right click installer>Run as Administrator?

Hello and thanks for the welcome!

I'm running BIOS v211 - I was previously only running 210 so I wasn't far behind. I upgraded it from within the bios "Ez Flash Utility". I'm unable to downgrade back, or re-flash it with the current version, it gives me an error stating "Version is too old"

I'm running windows 10 Build 18363 according to dxdiag. I've upgraded the drivers from the Assus website, and by using their support Live Chat to ensure I have the correct drivers.

DXDiag Output in case theres any useful information in there:
