I'm having the EXACT same problem. It is hugely distressing and frustrating.
Especially being a university student wherein classes are long and battery
power is short - so having sleep mode WORKING would be useful.
I too, have the same symptoms - closing the lid puts it into sleep mode but
it will not get out of sleep mode and the only way to get the screen to light
up again is to hard boot (press down the power button) until it shuts off and
then restart it again. I'm pretty sure this isn't very good for my laptop.
