So I put my pc into sleep mode while I clean my room and come back 5-10mins later. When I try to boot the pc up again nothing happens no response but the power button continues to flash. What should I do?

#

When mine goes into sleep mode, the power button flashes and wont turn on from the movement of the mouse

#

Just press the power button and it should come back on?

No fans no lights no sound no output nothing

#

Just out of interest, what case do you have?

graceful ridge
#

And clicking the small restart button on the case so does nothing

#

Uhhh

#

It’s a Corsair 4000D

#

I believe

bright nimbus
#

Ah. Try holding the power button to see if its shuts the pc off or reacts to it

graceful ridge
#

Nothing

bright nimbus
#

Do the front panel connectors look fully plugged in?

#

Normally at the bottom of your motherboard, ill see if i can find a picture

graceful ridge
#

It’s flashing tho so I dont really wanna touch but I think so

#

I haven’t had this problem before and it was working perfectly fine this morning

bright nimbus
#

Just take a look, i think the header is JFP1

#

Might be a case of switching it off at the back of the PSU. If it doesn’t react to the power button then thats the only way to turn it off

graceful ridge
#

The red on is floppy but the JFP1 is the one next to it and it’s fully in

#

Is it safe to turn it off from the back

bright nimbus
#

Should be fine to turn it off at the back. Only problem is if theres something you haven’t saved, it wont be able to save it etc.

graceful ridge
#

Nah I turn off everything usually before sleep mode

bright nimbus
#

You might get an error in the event viewer but thats just because the pc lost power unexpectedly

#

Normally a kernal power error, but because you know why it lost power, its fine

graceful ridge
#

Now it’s back and it responded to when I clicked it

#

That’s very weird. Just a click from the back

bright nimbus
#

Keep an eye on it

#

Might be worth trying it in sleep mode again and seeing if it works when you press the power button

graceful ridge
#

Should I put it into sleep mode again and see if it happens again? I use it regularly maybe 1 or 2 times a day

bright nimbus
#

Yeah, if it does the same thing, then it might be something with the front panel connectors, or maybe the power settings. Im honestly not too sure

graceful ridge
#

It seem to be fine now

#

Just a hiccup bc it worked that time

bright nimbus
#

Maybe just had an off moment

#

They like to do that sometimes 😂

graceful ridge
#

Thank you for the help

bright nimbus
#

Np 👍

graceful ridge
#

Didn’t know it was okay to turn it off from the back while it’s still on

bright nimbus
#

Yeah, its not the best way, but shouldn’t damage anything

#

Only thing it will effect is possible file changes if its not had a chance to auto save

graceful ridge
#

Good to know

#

Thanks again!
