My PC is Dell Inspiron 3910 running Windows 11. I have Sleep on never. I have a program running that also has a setting to keep the PC from sleeping while it is active, so that it's not interrupted. When idle, it has started going into some sort of hibernation state. I can hear things internally running and the power light is on, but it won't wake to any input. It is also verified that it has stopped streaming data to my other device, so I know it's not just a display issue. The only way I'm able to fix it is to to a hard shut down and power back on.
