I had 2 issues with my computer and im not exactly sure what is wrong with it. So just looking for any random suggestions
First i can't put the computer to sleep/standby. When i try, the computer powers off for 1 second and turns on again. With the exception of the monitor which stays in standby. Got to hold the power button to restart the computer to use it again.
Second is that sometimes i assume my game crashes (rare) and it does the same thing with the monitor. Tower is still on and monitor is off/in standby. And then when i manually restart the computer when this happens half the time the monitor still wont show anything. Takes a couple trys sometime.
So im fairly certain that these issues are related
