Hi @Deepak2803,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

If your HP screen wakes up from sleep mode too quickly, it’s likely due to a setting or device that’s unintentionally waking the system. Here’s how to troubleshoot and fix it:

1. Check What’s Waking the Computer

You can find out what last woke your PC:

  1. Press Win + X → select Windows Terminal (Admin) or Command Prompt (Admin).
  2. Type: powercfg /lastwake

This will show what device or process last woke the system.


2. Disable Wake Timers

  1. Go to Control Panel > Power Options.
  2. Click Change plan settings next to your active plan.
  3. Click Change advanced power settings.
  4. Expand Sleep > Allow wake timers.
  5. Set both On battery and Plugged in to Disable.


3. Prevent Devices from Waking the PC

  1. Press Win + X → Device Manager.
  2. Expand KeyboardsMice, and Network adapters.
  3. Right-click each device → Properties > Power Management.
  4. Uncheck “Allow this device to wake the computer”.


4. Check Scheduled Tasks

Some background tasks (like updates or maintenance) can wake your PC:

  • Open Task Scheduler.
  • Look for tasks with “Wake the computer to run this task” enabled.
  • Disable that option if unnecessary.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
