screen with the word "locking" in the middle appears for half a second and my laptop goes into sleep mode
and then i have to turn it on again
this never happened before the update , i tried to reset and fresh start but, nothing worked , and now i can't get back to previous build
what do i do ?
HELP , PLEASE
SOLUTION
Hey guys
So, I solved the issue (for me, at least) a long time ago but forgot to report back. My apologies
Basically,
Settings -> power and sleep -> additional power settings -> change advanced power settings -> battery
Then, change critical battery action and low battery action to do nothing both on battery and plugged in
I don't know if others already solved the problem In a different way, but i Hope that helps
Have a good day

No, at the time I experienced this problem I was using the laptop monitor (lid open), and it happened at a random rate (sometimes frequently every 15 - 20 mins, something days). It just happened to me again 2 mins ago. I don't think it affects because of the lid and hibernation setting. And even when I use external monitor I always leave the lid open.
I unplugged the phone plug and piwer to my wifi for 10 minutes then plugged them back in. Then went to updates in settings and there was a mucrosoft update that had not automaticalky uploaded like the rest. Uploaded that and nomore problem. Is not my battery. Possible threat in my wifi or microsoft fix in the update.

Keep me posted.
If I might suggest to follow the illustrated Clean Install which should get you past all difficulties as it has millions of others who have followed the steps in this link and never come back to report another problem: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...
Make sure during the booted install to follow the illustrated steps to delete all partitions down to Unallocated Space to get it cleanest, then click Next to let it auto-create the needed partitions, format them and begin install - this makes it foolproof.
You will get and keep the best possible install to the exact extent you stick with the steps, tools and methods in the linked tutorial. It's a better install than any amount of money could buy and a great learning experience that will make you the master of your PC because you will learn everything that works best and how to apply it with your own hands.
