Hi @Tomfi,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
If your HP Spectre 15-Eb1 X360 Convertible Laptop PC screen doesn't wake up after sleep mode, here are some steps to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue.
Check Power Settings
- Go to Settings > System > Power & sleep.
- Ensure that the settings for "Sleep" and "Screen" are configured correctly. Try setting them to a longer duration or to "Never" for troubleshooting purposes.
Update Drivers
- Display Driver:
- Open Device Manager (right-click the Start button and select Device Manager).
- Expand the Display adapters section.
- Right-click your display driver and select Update driver.
- Choose Search automatically for updated driver software.
- BIOS and Chipset Drivers:
- Visit the HP Support website.

Reinstall Display Driver
- In Device Manager, right-click the display driver and select Uninstall device.
- Restart your computer. Windows will automatically reinstall the driver.
Modify Sleep Settings in Advanced Power Options
- Open Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options.
- Click Change plan settings next to your selected power plan.
- Click Change advanced power settings.
- Expand Sleep, then expand Allow hybrid sleep and set it to Off.
- Expand PCI Express and set Link State Power Management to Off.
Check for Hardware Issues
- If the problem persists, it could be a hardware issue. Connect an external monitor to check if the laptop is outputting display to it.
- If the external monitor works, the issue might be with the laptop's display panel or related hardware.
Perform a System Restore
- If the issue started recently, perform a system restore to a point where the laptop was functioning correctly.
- Go to Control Panel > System and Security > System > System protection.
- Click System Restore and follow the prompts.
These steps should help you diagnose and resolve the issue of your HP Spectre's screen not waking up from sleep mode.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
