    This is a list of installed apps, I am fairly certain sleep worked before this.


    EDIT:

    1. Chipset Driver
    2. USB 3.0 Driver (11xR3, 14x, 17xR3, 18x only)
    3. Intel RST Driver / Intel Management Engine
    4. Freefall Sensor Driver (Optional - many members choose not to install this. Also,
    as long as your drive supports it, the 'App' will work with aftermarket drivers)


    Did a fresh install, followed these steps and restart still happens. Now I'm not sure if I should reinstall again or wait until it gets fixed (which may require a reinstall anyways).

    am I the only person having this problem??
