My computer will not wake up from sleep mode with screen open.

[jim196]

If I leave my computer open and it goes into sleep mode it will not wake up by keyboard, pad or power button. I have to hard restart the system to get the computer to work again. This has been happening for about 5 months. Have tried several times to update, checked to verify that the keyboard is on wake up mode.

@jim196 Greetings from the HP Community!

I suggest you make a few changes to the way sleep mode works under power options:

• Change - "Put the computer to sleep" to preferred time,
• And Change - "Turn off the monitor" to never.

If the issue persists, try the below steps:

Disabling the hybrid sleep, followed by updating all available Windows updates and the BIOS update from the HP website, please follow the below steps to disable the hybrid sleep after performing a hard reset on the device should help resolve the issue.

1. In Windows, search for and open Control panel.

2. Make sure the View by setting is set to Category, and then click Hardware and Sound.

3. Click Power Options.

4. Click Change plan settings for the power plan that is selected.

   

5. Click Change advanced power settings.

   

6. Expand Sleep, and then expand Allow hybrid sleep.

7. Select Off from the On battery drop-down menu, and then select Off from the Plugged in drop-down menu.

   
    

8. Click OK.
