Could you provide us with your system specs and operating system information?

Without your system info I can only suggest you reset your CMOS and see if that helps Wink

Ok so I will guide you through a more simple process first and see if that helps you Wink

When your PC first powers on you should be presented with the Asrock logo or a lot of text and numbers providing information about your system (depending on how your bios is set up). When this screen shows up press the F2 key to enter your BIOS. Next, click the exit icon at the top right of the screen. You should now be presented with a menu with the following options.

Save and Exit
Discard Changes and Exit
Discard Changes
Load UEFI defaults

Click Load UEFI defaults then click save and exit. 

Allow your PC to go into sleep mode again and see if it will wake this time. 

Personally I never use sleep or hibernate but if it is a feature you require for any reason I am happy to try and help you resolve the issue.

Oh and CMOS = Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor and is basically the memory where all your BIOS settings are stored. Clearing it is done by bridging 2 pins on the motherboard briefly or removing the motherboard battery with the power cord unplugged briefly to wipe that memory clean to allow the system to restore its default settings. What I just walked you through above is the software equivalent of this though sometimes it is not as effective as a hard clear.

Excellent, now we know where to start Smile

Ok from here things will get a little more complicated but I will try and keep my instructions simple and easy to follow.

We need to go into the BIOS again. 
Once in the BIOS click on the icon labeled "Advanced"
Click on "ACPI Configuration" in the menu that opens.
Set the following to enabled:
PS/2 Keyboard Power On
USB Keyboard/Remote Power On
USB Mouse Power On

Click the exit icon in the top right corner
Click on save and exit.

Boot up and see if you still have a problem. If so we will try something else.

When the PC is in sleep mode are the keyboard lights still lit?

When trying to wake the PC did you try moving the mouse too?

Ok so something isn't right here, the numlock button on the keyboard should remain lit in sleep mode. So, the PC seems to be powering down when entering sleep mode. 

Now we need to check windows for any potential problems.

Right click the desktop and select Personalize from the drop down menu.
Click Screensaver
Click Change power settings
You should now have 2 power plans listed with one of them being active (it should have a black dot in the checkbox)
Click "change plan settings" for your active profile
Now click "Change Advanced Power Settings"
Expand the sleep tree by clicking the little + next to it.
Click the + sign next to "allow wake timers"
Make sure it is set to enabled
Also check to see if "Allow hybrid sleep" is enabled, if not, enable it.

If these settings are already enabled then I will need to think a bit about your problem and get back to you Wink

If they are not enabled then that may well be the problem.
