Drivers & Software

[srlake314]

Whenever my computer goes into screensaver, it works fine, but then after a minute or two it goes into sleep mode.  However, I'm not able to re wake it.  When I press any key, or hold any key down, it acts like it's going to wake, but then the monitor says it's searching and can't find one.   
If I continue to press keys, after awhile it starts back up, but it has restarted the computer instead of just re waking.  So I lose everything I was working on.  
Any ideas?  Software, hardware?  Drivers are all updated.

I apologize if this isn't the correct forum as I have no idea what is causing this.

It's a long shot..but easy to do...try disabling fast start. You must reboot after you disable it. Give it a try..

Hey Kingfish.

I messed around with those settings as well as advanced power AMD settings that were suggested elsewhere.  Still, bloody thing says monitors not found, goes back into sleep mode(pc never shows that's it's actually running other than the lights in the case).  
Then it goes back into flashing power button indicating sleep mode, all lights except memory goes off.  Then If I hold the spacebar(or any key) down long enough it wakes up and shows the bios screen that it's starting up from scratch.

There are a lot of "answers" out there, I'm finding, but don't seem to fix it.

Here's one answer, that I'm leery of doing, but will do if all else fails:
