Windows shuts down instead of sleeping, sometimes gives BSOD
Hi, I have been googling around and can't seem to find an answer that helps my case, pretty much my computer has been shutting down instead of going to sleep and when I start it up again it said windows didn't shut down properly, the first few times it gave me a BSOD stating DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE but it stopped giving me that. For some reason my computer doesn't create minidump files or dump files at all, I've read the 'How to configure windows to create dump files' and made the changes listed in the tutorial and I even downloaded the registry file but still nothing. It only happens when I've had it on for the day because if I restart it and put it to sleep within say, an hour, it will go to sleep properly but if it's been on for the day then I will hear some component in my computer turn off but the fans will keep running for 10 minutes until it switches off.
