Computer goes to sleep and won't wake up

A few days ago my computer started not to wake sleep cycle.  It goes into hibernation and don't wake up with a jerk of the mouse or by pressing the buttons on the keyboard.  I put the display to sleep for 4 hours and 30 minutes, but she falls asleep before 4 hours are rising and then don't wake up upward.  I have to press the button for a few seconds to do to turn off and then restart.  If I press a button on the screen when the computer is in standby it gives me a message that the signal of the computer has been lost.  Anyone has any ideas how to solve this problem?

Hello

Look at all the features associated with sleep and ensure that it is only sleeping and not hibernate.

Some computers sleep mode will not let you wake up mouse etc. You have to push short s to the power Witch (as mentioned above by WillTel).

It is possible that your computer never before slept and was just to go off the screen.

  • Disconnect me, and the computer goes to sleep. When he wakes, he is recorded in a user account.

    I am the administrator. After the use of the computer, that I log out, and after a while the computer sleeps. When I move the mouse or press any key to wake up the computer, it is saved in a non-administrator user account. Why would it be? I have Vista Home Premium Service pack 2. There are two accounts of users with an administrator account. One of the user accounts is that connects itself whenever I log out of the administrator account.

    When my monitor goes to sleep I can't wake him up by clicking on the mouse. I have to restart the computer to be able to see the screen.  I tried all turned on and on the screen but when I do it says monitor going to sleep

    I assume you are using a desktop computer you are referring to the monitor going to sleep rather than the course of PC to sleep.

    1 check the monitor power management & the display adapter in Control Panel, Manager of peripheral and during that control you the mouse power management and make sure that it is likely to be used for anything wake up.

    2 in case of failure, then check the monitor & display settings of the adapter to control panel, display.

    3 check manual site or the monitor stand, so the settings recommended.

    4 then check the settings of the Control Panel, power options, change plan settings change advanced power settings.  In particular, if it is a USB mouse, you may disable settings settings USB, USB selective suspend setting.

  • When my computer goes into sleep mode, I have to press the power button to turn it back on.

    original title: sleep/hibernation

    When my computer goes into sleep mode, I have to press the power button to turn it back on.  I used only having to press a key on the keyboard.

    Can someone tell me how to solve this problem, as if it was before?

    Well, on the theory that your computer is awkward, try to change the settings to another thing and OK your way out the control panel.  Then go back and put them in the way they were and OK your way out.  Occasionally, it will reset the internal parameters and things can return to normal.

    Yet another problem of sleep

    This one is different.

    My PC will just goes to sleep. I checked the power options, looked at the process to see what is running, done everything I know and can't know why he won't go to sleep. I have the ability to set to turn off the monitor after 5 minutes and the hard drive after 10 minutes.

    Here are the different part.

    Windows 7 Professional

    If I click on the Start button, go close and choose to sleep in the list, this 'thing' will go to sleep, monitor first, then hard drive and stays asleep until I have move the cursor or something to wake it up.

    So what prevents it from sleep doesn't bother it once it is put to sleep.

    Hi Jerry,
     
    Do one by an option in the following article:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/97687

    If this problem continues after you disable a device, disable the devices in this list one by one until you determine which device is causing the problem. If you want to re-enable a device to wake the computer, run the following command:

    Powercfg - deviceenablewake " " DeviceName "order. "
    Open a command prompt window
