Hello,
First of all, I'm Dutch and so is my Windows, so if some terms aren't quite as they should in English, I apologize and hope you still understand.
I recently reinstalled Windows 8 completely because I bought an SSD for in my laptop. I exported my power plans I used before the reset (when Windows was still on the HDD) and imported them again after the reset. In every power plan, Windows should go to sleep mode when closing the laptop lid, but that's not what's happening. Instead, Windows shuts down entirely, but the power light on my laptop indicates it's in sleep mode (flashing slowly). I also tried the built-in power plans (after just adjusting the appropriate setting), but the same happens. When i change the setting to do nothing (instead of going to sleep mode), it acts like it should: it does nothing.
I searched a bit around on the internet, but I can't find solutions or even someone else with the same problem. Pretty desperate, I refreshed Windows but even now thI recently reinstalled Windows 8 completely because I bought an SSD for in my laptop.

So even more desperate, I make this thread and hope someone can help me!
Thanks in advance,
