Troubleshoot help (sleep and fans)


Recommended Posts

i sometimes like to just put my pc to sleep instead of full power down and have never had a problem.

 

a couple days ago i took my tower out to dust the inside as i was moving desk setups and know when i try to put the pc to sleep the case fans continue to run and i cant find any setting that would have changed and not sure why simply unplugging the tower would have changed anything?

Press Start -> type in Powershell -> type in powercfg /a in the command line and make sure S3 is available for your system.  If it's only reporting S1 is available, then we have a problem.

 

Aside from something physical you might have done (recheck all of your wiring, and it might be a good idea to re-seat the video card into the PCI-E slot), perhaps when you shutdown/restarted the computer it installed an update that broke sleep mode.  Could try a system restore if there is a recent one available.
