Last week I've updated my PC with the latest Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. Since then, I cannot longer use a sleep mode on the PC - when I try to put the PC to sleep, it doesn't go to sleep but to a some 'special state':
- the power LED is turned off (instead of blinking)
- after the first pressing of the power button, nothing happens
- after the second pressing of the power button PC boots normally (as if it was turned off, not sleeping)
I checked the Event Viewer System Log and it shows this error (after every start form this 'special mode'):
Event 41, Kernel-Power, The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.
Of course, I've updated BIOS and all my drivers to the latest version, but it didn't help.
My configuration:
- MB: Asus P6X58D-E
- RAM: 6x Corsair XMS3 CM3X2G1600C9 2 GB (12 GB)
- CPU: Intel Core i7-930
- GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 750 Ti

I am struggling with a similar issue since a few weeks now. My computer did not enter sleep mode at all, but instead went to the lock screen. Here is what solved the issue for me:Control Panel >> Power Options >> Edit Plan Settings (your active plan) >> Change advanced power settings >> Sleep >>
- Allow hybrid sleep: SET TO OFF
- Allow wake timers: SET TO DISABLE
About 'Allow hybrid sleep':I have a Samsung 950 PRO 512 and 64GB of memory with a 40 GB RamDrive. I do NOT want windows to write all this stuff on my drive every time i enter sleep mode!
About 'Allow wake timers':When I put my computer to sleep, I want it to sleep! No software, driver, what-so-ever should interfere with my decision.
