Laptop is a bit sluggish to wake up from sleep either just the computer going to sleep with the lid open or with the lid closed. Takes a few seconds to turn the screen on. Longer than it should I think. Any tips to make it wake up faster?

    Please try a simple power reset. Disconnect the charger. Please check for a battery reset PIN hole at the bottom of the device. The reset hole would have a battery symbol next to it. Insert a paperclip into the hole and press for four seconds. Let the computer sit for 5 minutes with no power. Reconnect the charger and check the issue.

    In some cases Windows 10 (OS 1709) does not resume from sleep mode with a key press or mouse click. Previous versions of Windows only required one key press or mouse click to wake the system. You can wake the system by pressing a key twice on the keyboard, or clicking your mouse button twice. The first click will wake the system with no video displayed and the second click will enable the video.

    >>Try to Disable Hibernation
    Press the Windows key and the letter X on your keyboard at the same time.
    Select Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu that appears. Click Yes to allow the app to make changes to your PC.
    Type powercfg/h off and press Enter. Restart your computer.

    >>Run the Windows Power Management troubleshooter.
    Type troubleshooting in the Windows search box and press Enter. Select Troubleshooting (control panel) from the list of search results. Click System 
    and Security. Click Power. Click Next to run the power management troubleshooter. Click Close when the troubleshooter completes. Restart your computer.

    >>If the issue persists, please uninstall and reinstall the graphics adapter from device manager.
    Press the Windows key and the letter X on your keyboard and then click Device Manager. In the Device Manager, expand Display adapters.
    Right-click on the graphics card entry and then click Uninstall device option.  When you get the following confirmation dialog, select Delete the driver software for this device check box and then click Uninstall button. Once the driver is uninstalled, reboot your computer once and let windows install the driver.
