I understand this might not be the ideal spot to ask, but I've searched other communities and still couldn't solve it. For some time, I faced an issue where putting my PC to sleep and trying to wake it up either by pressing the keyboard or the power button caused it to briefly restart before going back to sleep. Once awake, pressing those buttons didn't work and the case's power indicator stayed the same as in sleep mode. Previously, I would turn off and then back on the PSU switch to restart, but now positioning my tower is tricky. Any advice would be greatly helpful since I'm still learning about this. Thanks!

I experienced this problem with my previous computer for several years. I disabled Windows sleep mode, but it didn’t seem useful. On my current system, I’ve encountered similar issues, though they’re not identical. Overall, it doesn’t seem worthwhile to me either.

I fully changed the PSU and it's been working perfectly ever since!
