Laptop goes back to sleep mode when opened.

[Nightwish]

Pretty sure it started after win10, but my Aspire v3-571g laptop, when opened switches on then after about 5 seconds it goes back into sleep mode.

Is there any fix for this please?

Hey Nightwish,

Whether it's a solution or not, you could try in your power settings disabling sleep mode. (as well as check to see if a lower than desirable time is set)

Here's how:

Hold in your windows start key (on your keyboard) + R
You will now see the Run Dialog Box
Type "control" and click "OK"
Type in Search Control Panel up the top right hand side "power"
You will see a link that says "Power Options" please click that
You are now in the Power Options part of control panel
It doesn't really matter which plan you are on, just click "Change plan settings" closest to your selected plan
Click "Change advanced power settings"
A Power Option dialog box should now pop up
Look for "Sleep" and expand it
Check "Sleep after" is not set to something like 1 min and change it to 0 which will make it "NEVER"
Click "apply" and "okay"
Restart PC and see if that helps, you may have to do this quickly if your PC will give you longer than 5 seconds, if not try safe mode.

If this doesn't help I will try to find you another solution
