PC failing to resume from sleep after Nvidia driver update
Issue
Windows 11 desktop PC suddenly started to fall to resume from the sleep mode. Upon waking up, the fans would start, the screen briefly flashes, but then nothing happens, the screen stays black and the computer is not responsive. The only fix is a hard reboot.
