    Has anyone with Windows 10 fresh install notice this problem from the 15xx and 16xx releases? I noticed this was quite bad. I know in Windows 7 if the system went to sleep there was no issue getting it to wake up. But with Window 10 this was a problematic issue with me. It was worse, if I had programs that was idling but it went to sleep and I couldn't wake the computer up-I had to force restart to be able to access the computer. I had all the latest Windows update along with the latest board drivers but still that didn't fix the problem. Now with W10 CU fall update it seems to come back awake without problem when my Desktop W10 goes to sleep. I don't know if this was fixed here but I will keep tabs on if this keeps happening or not as my Dell 1525 is also getting this fresh install and I will see if this wake from sleep problem has been fixed or not. I have Windows 10x64 Pro if that helps and the same was installed on W10Cu as well. I'll update this as I use CU Fall '17 and if this keeps happening or not.

    Well so far my first test leaving my Desktop overnight didn't wake up properly and the sleep/hibernate mode didn't come back correctly. I had to push the restart button to turn it back on but it didn't do a Windows check like previous Windows version should you push the restart button.

    Update: I read that versions 1603 or earlier then 1703 didn't have this wake up sleep/hibernation problem so not sure why it would rear it ugly head now?
