However please note that this solution shall work only if you have upgraded to “Windows 10” and you’ve not deleted previous Windows installation folder i.e. “windows.old” folder, because computer shall gonna search for driver in this folder too for display driver.

Hi HW - See fixes for Windows can't wake from Sleep: https://www.kapilarya.com/fix-windows-10-wont-wake-up-from-sleep https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-power/computer-wont-wake-from-sleep-mode-windows-10/91bda12c-9fbb-4e98-9113-7f7b83e2a095 The Display driver is so important here that merely updating it is sometimes not enough. So let's try everything possible to get it working correctly: First make sure you have updated the Display driver from the PC or Display adapter maker's Support Downloads web page for your exact model number, HP Serial Number or Dell Service Tag - from the sticker on the PC. While there check also for newer chipset, BIOS/UEFI firmware (very important), network, sound, USB3 and other drivers, comparing to the ones presently installed in Device Manager reached by right clicking the Start Menu. If this doesn't give you the latest or ideal driver for what you need, compare it to the driver offered by the Intel driver update Utility here: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/detect.html or the Nvidia Update utility here: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Scan.aspx?lang=en-us or the AMD autodect utility here: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/auto_detect.aspx For Display issues one fix that is working is to Roll back or Uninstall the Driver on the Display Device > Driver tab, restart PC to reinstall driver. You can also try older drivers in Device Manager > Display device > Driver tab > Update Driver > Browse > Let Me Pick. Then you will know you've tried everything in addition to Windows Update drivers. Adjust the screen resolution until it fits and looks best at Settings > System > Display.
