Sleep Function Disabled on Laptop - Calgarypuck Forums - The Unofficial Calgary Flames Fan Community

Hi everyone, my HP laptop froze while it was shutting down and updating so I took out the battery. When I turned it back on, the sleep function was disabled, so I can't select it since the menu is dimmed out. Does anyone have any ideas on what happened?

Not only that, but the screen became zoomed in and sort of blurry. I checked the resolution but it doesn't seem like that is the problem.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong?

I can't understand technology to save my life, so forgive me if these questions sound unintelligent.

Try rebooting. It sounds like your running in Safe Mode.

I ended up asking my brother to help me out. I honestly still don't know why that happened or what he did to fix it. He didn't exactly explain what he did either, although it looks like LockedOut was right. Now everything's back to normal!

I am such a technology fail sometimes.
