Trying to sleep
Noah Gutierrez
Ethan Rogers
I had to turn off magic packet wake-up AND disable my mouse as a wake-up in order to get mine to fuckin' stop.

This shit always pissed me off. I'd get done with a big long night of contract work making animations and save and shut my pc off exhausted. It would turn the fuck back on and I'd have to get my ass up to turn it off again in anger.

Enjoy your dead hard drive.

It's probably just your network adapter waking up your pc. It's fairly common.
One quick google search should get you the cmd command that tell you what exactly is waking up your computer, and how to disable it from doing so.
How so? A Hard drive has moving mechanical parts, which don't move at all while it's in sleep mode. Is there somthing I've missed?

I honestly do hope anyone responsible for spam/robot calls get cancer and die alone in a field. I'm not trying to be edgy, I really do.
Caleb Reyes
Turn off the notification sound, retard. Also

Angel Martin
>doesnt just yank his power cable out of the outlet without turning the computer off first
buncha poorfags that want to use the same computer for decades lmao
Joshua Green
>he doesn't just buy a new computer every day instead of turning your computer off like a peasant
I even pay someone to turn it on for me. Stand aside.
Nathaniel Powell
>PC turns itself on
There's a way to avoid it. Its called 'shut down' and its been PCs for decades, just to avoid this problem! Crazy, right?
Juan Sullivan
See if your country has a do not call list. It won't stop all of them but it will stop a lot of them.

>peasants talking about turning on and off electrical computers
A real patrician hires people to work their massive arrays of priceless, one-of-a-kind abacuses to do their computing

>nothing wrong with the hard drive or CPU
>isolate it down to the GPU, which constantly idles at 55 degrees celsius
>fans refuse to change speed despite temperature, nearly suffer a meltdown when the system reaches 90 degrees
I don't get it. The fan still spins, but it never changes speed.

Sleep puts the computer into a low-power mode, only maintaining enough power to keep the RAM powered so that it can start back up and retain its data. Writes to the hard drive for sleep are minimal.
You're thinking of hibernate, which writes RAM contents to the hard drive before powering off entirely so it can restore the RAM when starting back up.
Logan Gutierrez
>hear banging noise in my PC, followed by buzzing and grinding
I had this issue too. Turns out there was just a little man inside my case.
Christian Walker
yeah, I usually am making 3d stuff for games actually.
John Morris
That's hibernation, retard. Sleep backs up your current session into RAM.

that's what the switch on pic related is for, dummy
enjoy having all of your appliances and devices die after a year or two because you leave them on fucking Standby all the time.
Owen Kelly
That is because you have wakup LAN enabled and a shitty router or your windows power profile is FUBAR.
Connor Mitchell
fucking hate this shit too
it often happens after putting it to sleep manually
but i set it to go to sleep automatically after 30min (because i'm too lazy to set it to 5min then change it back every time i have to step outside) and then it just sleeps like a baby and let me sleep like a baby too
Asher Davis
Ball bearing fan dying, usually only PSUs have ball bearing fans unless you got some fancy fans like Arctic CO or Noctua.
Your GPU is using shitty DC Fans so you cant force speeds.
Eli Peterson
What's the point of leaving it asleep?
I just turn mine off every night, it boots in like 5 seconds thanks to my M.2 NVMe but I am guessing that is not the reason to keep it on?

ASUS motherboard huh?
Jayden Stewart
turn off the feature if you don't like it.
Cameron Foster
That is a perfectly normal thing to be scared of.
John Moore
Why not just put the pc in another room like a normal person? There are ways to connect a pc to a tv with over 50 metres of wire if you must lay in bed and watch porn and use the internet.
Nathaniel Wright
I got angry and force shutdowned.
Ended up corrupting my install and had to reinstall.
