Hey all,
Got a fairly newly built PC (Jan this year) and something it has started doing - suppose at the same time I upgraded to windows 10.
When I leave the PC for a while, say until the screen goes off and you would usually wake it with pressing the mouse or keyboard.. well it doesn't wake!
It just sort of hangs, the only way to get it back is to force turn off and then on again.
I often remote to it from work (using chrome remote desktop) and if I leave that for a bit, and I loose connection because of this so the pc is not even awake as such.
I have tried a workaround by having it never go to sleep or turn the screen off, and just have a screensaver after 20 minutes. but this has not helped!
I also reinstalled my gpu drivers to see if that helped, nope.
PC specs
AMD 860k 3.7Ghz
R9 280
8GB Ram
Samsung SSD 120GB Evo
Anymore specifics let me know.
Thanks all
EDIT: Been googling some more and seen it might be a BIOS setting I have turned off!? Can't test it as I am at work now
