Sleep mode not working?

Hi LTT Community,

Basically, every time I try to put my pc into sleep mode, the screens will shut off, but the fans will keep running and keyboard will remain on as well.  I've tried disabling network adapters from waking the computer, and changing my multimedia wake settings.  Is there anything else I can try?  It was working fine just a week ago and now it is not.

 

Thanks all.

Are you running on a Windows Pc? If so you might have changed a setting by accident somehow. Are you putting it in to sleep mode by clicking something that looks like this? (Picture below)

I'm running windows 10.  And I've been pressing the sleep button in the power start settings.  I just tried hibernate and it worked as normal.

The fans spinning is abit odd, however when I put my Pc in to sleep mode it sometimes keeps my mouse and keyboard powered and they display lighting as if the computer was on normally.

The strange part about this is that it worked always up until recently.  I'm not sure what else it could be.
