Hi all, I am running into a annoying problem quite frequently. My laptop wont wake from sleep. The power indicator light pulses but whatever i do it wont wake. The laptop gets quite hot, the fan is not spinning. I tried:
- Pressing all kinds of keys on the keyboard
- Fysically closing and opening the laptop
- Pressing the powerbutton
The only thing that worked is fully shutting down my laptop. This is anoying as I sometimes lose progress on whatever i am working on. Is there a fix?
You can triage using the amd-s2idle tool from
we’re talking windows or linux? If linux, check the output of the following command. It will tell you if power button has the ability to wake the device up
cat /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0C0C:00/power/wakeup
Sorry forgot to mention im running win 10
On Windows did you make sure you have all drivers installed? There should be no yellow bang in device manager.
Does clicking on your touchpad wake the laptop? Waking using the keyboard was disabled a while ago, due to it waking the laptop randomly. The power button and lid should’ve worked though.
