Hi,

So im having trouble with getting my windows 8 pc to sleep.

specs:
NVidia gtx480
4gb ram
evga p55 le
i5 760

I have set the power button to make it sleep, when I press it. It sleeps but only for a minute or so until the fans turn on. But it still sleeps. Pressing a key on the keyboard turn is back on.

If left to sleep with the timer, it will "sleep" but fans will turn on every one minute and turn off. In the even viewer it says syncing time with the hardware clock.

If I click sleep on the pc it sleeps properly.

Any Ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks

Not sure you understand my issue, when a computer sleeps the fans should stay off the whole time. Mine doesnt.
