    Hi all,

    when the laptop goes into sleep, turns off the display, sometimes when i try to wake it up it wont and the display wont appear but the laptop is fully awake since i tried clicking and i hear a sound and my youtube video plays on the background (probably clicked on it by accident and it plays).

    anyone getting this? any solutions?

    Are you connected to an external display at all? Try seeing if Windows key + P or FN + F7 turn it back on again. Also, reinstalling the hotkey or video drivers may fix it.

    nope, im only using the laptop display. i already reinstalled the video drivers and about the hotkey i cant seem to reinstall it like its saying drivers are already up to date. anyway this doesnt really happen often, but when it does makes me wonder whats causing it.
