Power saving

[Guest]

My pc Goes into Power saving Mode at irregular Intervals and then can take a
few attempts to switch back on due to problem repeating. Have checked my
settings and problem not there. Can anyone please help

Settings for Home/Office Desk power scheme:

If the Hibernate tab is unavailable, your computer does not support this
feature.

UNCheck: Enable hibernation
