Question PC doesnt sleep

[tanday]

Please help me, I can't put my PC into sleep mode manually. When i choose sleep mode the screen goes black and everything is still running and it'll start back up if I click the mouse or press keyboard key. It used to sleeps only when I set it to go to sleep automatically after a given time but now it not working anymore. Is there any easy way to fix this ?

Hey there,

Have you changed power profiles or messed around with them recently?

You can re-initiate the default profiles by doing the following:

Open up powershell (as administrator) Then type one of the following:

High Performance: powercfg -duplicatescheme 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c
Ultimate Performance: powercfg -duplicatescheme e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61
Power saver: powercfg -duplicatescheme a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a
Balanced: powercfg -duplicatescheme 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e

Enter them all, and then reboot. Once done, select one of them and see if sleep works.

Are all your system drivers up to date? What bios are you running?

how do i check my driver and bios that youre talking about

You can get them all here: X299 AORUS Gaming 9 (rev. 1.0) Support | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global

Try just the drivers first. Download the most recent ones. Do all of those, and then we can talk about the bios.

Edit: You can check which bios you are running by dowloading/opening CPU-z, then clicking on the mainboard tab.

Having all drivers up to date, means less chance of hardware conflicts.

Your bios goes up to F8i. It might be worth trying the bios update here too.

im not really sure how do i update my bios with app center i dont really feel like to update it with Q flash

 

[Roland Of Gilead]

Q-flash is a recommended way to do it from your manufacturer. If you are unsure then leave it. ANd we can try and disganose further.

The idea with updating the bios is to rule out any bugs or issues, that have happened over time. It makes sense to rule it out as the issue.
