Hi, I've been experiencing a couple of times the issue described in this LTT video: https://youtu.be/OHKKcd3sx2c
My goal would be to disable Windows Modern Standby for which I'd have to enable S3 sleep.
Unfortunately, lenovo locked the default bios down quite a lot and sleep mode options are not available. It seems that those may be available in an "advanced bios". To enter the advanced bios on lenovo laptop there's usually a weird key combination to do before but there's no official documentation on that. I tried the steps for some other models but none of them succeeded and I couldn't find steps specific to my model online.
I'd like to know if anyone knows how to do that (and also if you have other solutions to my problem, not including using hibernation and shutting down my pc instead of using sleep).
I also posted this on the lenovo community forum but I doubt I'll be getting much help/answers there.

If you disable fast start-up, you should be able to disable Modern Standby

sly pasture Oct 2, 2023, 8:38 PM

#

Where should I disable modern standby after disabling fast startup?

#

I'm not completely sure, but I think the simplest way is with the Registry Editor

sly pasture Oct 2, 2023, 8:41 PM

#

I already tried the thing with the registry editor but it just removes the sleep option from the start menu

#

#

Have you tried setting PlatformAoAcOverride in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power to 0?

#

in regedit?

sly pasture Oct 2, 2023, 8:43 PM

#

yes

royal coyote Oct 2, 2023, 8:44 PM
