    So, m11x r1, windows 10 latest build and NVidia driver 341.95

    If I close the lid and pc will sleep, it won't wake up. Black screen it will be, with keyboard lit

    This has something to do with the Nvidia drivers I think. I had the same issue with W10 and now I am back on W7 but I still have this same issue from time to time even with W7. Unfortunately the drivers are old and have not been updated for years. I have to do a hard reset on mine to get it back up and running. You can always use hibernation instead of standby.
