My Dell Inspiron is stuck in sleep mode

How can I get my computer off of sleep mode. The light stays on yellow and it seems like there is no power to it all at. This error reads on the screen: 1. analog report sleep mode

Always a good idea to include the exact model number of the PC and version of Windows in your posts. :emotion-5:

Have you tried manually powering it off (press/hold power button) and then rebooting?

Yes I have tried manually shutting down, I even took the cover off and unplugged and replugged things in.

Try pushing the 'Windows' key on the keyboard.

If Bev's suggestion doesn't work, power off and unplug the PC from the wall. Press/hold the power button for ~15 sec. Open the case and remove the battery from the motherboard. Press/hold the power button again for ~30 sec. Reinstall the battery (right-side-up) and see if it will boot with only mouse, monitor and keyboard attached.
