based on your description you most likely appear to have a application or OS process that is crashing and the most common cause is a memory leak that over time consumes all available free memory locking up the OS

 

you will need to look at the windows error system logs,  google how to do this

 

uninstalling all user software then testing sleep will also show if it's windows itself or a install software causing this
