Intel NUC cannot standby

[lafaki]

Hi,

I have installed Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit on an Intel NUC NUC6i5SYH.
My computer cannot enter standby, neither automatically nor manually.

Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?

I have checked all potential devices including keyboard, mouse, NIC in the device manager.

Thanks!

This is now solved!

I ran a 'energy report' by typing "powercfg -energy" into the command prompt (at administrator level).
This showed that there were some errors triggered by a service called irmtservice.exe

After doing some investigation, I found out that this was the Intel(R) Ready Mode Technology.
After uninstalling it, all problems got solved in my case

Now my Intel NUC can properly shutdown and sleep (both manually as well as automatically)!
