Desktop migration: XP to Windows 10 - power management issues
best1syn2oil:
Julian, Did that, rebooted and placed into Sleep...again, Sleeps like a log but won't awaken with any inputs...and this time not even the reset button on the tower. Had to do a hard kill...(ouch). Think I will change it back and consider unchecking Fast Startup. I suspect the BIOS isn't fully compatible with Windows 10, but I can live with it. I am however compelled to find out why...lol! At least with Fast Startup disabled and S1 in place, the Reset button brings things back up. I attached a screenshot of the Command Prompt.
Julian:
Usb mouse and keyboard? If so put them in another usb port

Julian, Wired Mouse and Keyboard. I went back to the S1 setting and can again wake the machine from the reset button, so for the moment I can live with that. I have attached a screenshot of the Command Prompt info at this setting.

Hi Shane,
I did manage through the Group Policy Editor to have it not ask for a password on waking. I did find out that MSI is working on a new BIOS for the board to better suit Windows 10. Apparently the issue is widespread with a whole host of causes attributed to it, none of which applies to my machine. I am guessing the OS/BIOS combo to be the issue, but cannot be sure. The only other odd thing is that the laptop can access the desktop files via simple file sharing quite nicely, but not the other way around. Both Windows 10 with identical sharing settings...I'll figure it out eventually. In the meantime, it works. It was rather stunning to see what a 64 bit system will do with the 8 GB of RAM that have been in here for all this time...:)
