NUC 11 don't fully shut down, blue light stays on.

Hi,

I have a NUC 11 PAH i5.  Sometimes it doesn't fully shut down, and blue light stays on. 

There seems to be a pattern with this issue.  Whenever I boot up after I've removed and reinserted the power in the back of the NUC, it will work and go into hibernate or sleep for that first time, however, the very next time, when I attempt to put it into hibernate/sleep, it won't fully shut down and the blue light simply stays on.  I find that the only way to reset the NUC is to pull the power supply cord out of the NUC in order that I can use the NUC again.  My NUC has had this issue since the day I purchased it some 3 months ago.

Last night I did a full BIOS and driver update, but this has not fixed the issue.  I also done a BIOS default reset, but this has not fixed the issue.  

My NUC's system details are as enclosed in the photo NUC system.jpg.

Is there a fix for this issue or how do I go about resolving this issue as it is starting to annoy me

I have copied post from Terry because I've face same issue.

AFAIK, this is a know issue and is currently being investigated. Watch for BIOS/Driver updates related to this.

I've seen the same issue. It was resolved by rolling back the Intel graphics driver to version 27. Hopefully that is a workable solution for now.

@GannonN Version 27?  Explain.

I'm not sure of the reason behind it, but I have observed it with a couple dozen devices. They will be stuck in sleep mode as OP describes when the Intel Graphics driver is on version 30, but when it is rolled back to version 27 they work just fine. You'll either have to roll it back from Device Manager or download an installer from Intel.

No, explain what/where this driver "27" is.   There is no such version.

It's start to upset my mum now. Since it happen with many people INTEL should do something serious about this.
