No - I never fixed it. I now do what most of the experts in this thread suggested - I just leave it running (and shut down when I will be away for more than 24 hr or so). To be honest, it feels like it's sleeping anyway, since the monitor is off, the keyboard is unlit and it is pretty much...

You were wondering about moving the DIMMs? I could try that anyway (i.e. leaving 16GB in). Problem is that I have tested all 4 DIMMs and none appears to have a problem. If moving them around did fix it, then it's probably a BIOS issue, I guess, which would bring me back to re-flashing the BIOS...

Ah - sorry about that. I copy-pasted the spec from my original order, but then manually (and inaccurately) edited my after-order adjustments. I actually have 4 x 8GB corsair vengeance.

OK. Thanks all. I appreciate the valuable input that I have received. I think I have done all I can to fix this (short of re-flashing the BIOS) and I think you're right that it's not a major issue since I can just leave it running. I guess the power draw of an at-rest system with the monitor...

I ordered 5 days before you (17 Aug) and got mine on 18 September. If it's a normal-style queue, you might expect to be getting yours towards the end of this week.

I ended all running programs except essential windows stuff, and same problem. :( Bigfoot - I agree. Feels like a 1st world problem. But it's annoying not to be able to do what I have always done on a new £3,000 PC. To be honest, rather than pester everyone here, I might end up doing just what...

Unplugged all USB items (only keyboard and mouse left) and same issue - waking from sleep gives 4 beeps, power cycle and full reboot. Will try starting in safe mode. Can I do standard 'sleep' from there?

Yep - colour laser printer printer, LG38GN950 monitor & AudioEngine A2+. Will remove them all and reboot and try again. Will repost here shortly. Thank you!

I have taken all 4 DIMMs out & dusted their contacts and seatings with an air-blower. I took out the M.2 drive nearest the DIMM slots (labelled M2P_CPU on the motherboard map) and dusted it & contacts. Couldn't easily get to the other M.2, which was under the gigantic graphics card. The graphics...

OK, thanks. Was hoping that wouldn't be the next thing, but I can see it being sensible. I seem to recall 4 beeps at POST might indicate problem memory seating. Will try this and report back. Thanks for the input - much appreciated.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. Did this, but just the same - goes to sleep fine, but when waking it does 4 short beeps then appears to power cycle and does a full boot into windows.

Hi all. I hope someone can help. I have just received a beautiful new PC from PC Specialist and all is great except that it won't sleep properly. When I send it to sleep from windows, and then re-wake it, I get 4 beeps from the system unit, and it appears to power off, then power on again and...
