HP Stream - 11-ah117wm
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I updated my laptop (HP Stream Laptop) while updating the computer to finish its update in sleep mode. After this was finished the laptop was stuck in sleep mode. I hard reset the computer and it launched fine. After further observations looking through the logs on the update it had finished and it flagged that it went to sleep. The same problem happened again when it automatically went into sleep mode, and once again, the computer didn't wake up from sleep. I pressed the power but and I got no response. I can tell that the computer posted because the processing light on the side was on and the computer was responding to everything else. I tried with the charger in and out. The computer will wake up from sleep if I have an HDMI connection and my keyboard and mouse connected. Although my wireless mouse doesn't.
