MSI GP70 2QE Sleep Mode Bugs

[bradfordjseabury]

Hello everyone! This is my first time on Tom's Hardware. My MSI laptop, running the latest version of Windows, just today started having a problem.
If it goes into sleep mode (It also went into sleep mode about 5 minutes into a reboot), it intermittently goes into and out of sleep mode- The screen shuts off, even when I'm doing stuff, as if I hit the power button. Any help?

Edit: The flickers vary in length. On some, I have enough time to type in my password. On others I just sit here and watch it turn off and on.

Disable hybrid sleep and see if it works.
Open Power Options and click on Change plan settings on your selected power plan.
Click Change advanced power settings and click the + next to Sleep to expand it.
Click the + next to Allow hybrid sleep to expand it and turn off On battery and Plugged in.
Reboot
