Laptop goes to sleep mode even before the screen server CodingLover31-Jan-13 19:53 CodingLover 31-Jan-13 19:53  Hi all, I have a Win 7 64bit hp 8570w laptop. I've set the screen server to be active in 5 minutes. Other power management settings are as follows. Dim the display - 5 minutes Turn off the display - 10 minutes Put the computer to sleep - 30 minutes However, like around 2 minutes after I didn't use the laptop, it goes to sleep mode. Any idea why really happen that? If required more information please let me know. Thanks in advance If you've never failed... You've never lived...

Are you sure that you set the correct power save profile as the active one? Re: Laptop goes to sleep mode even before the screen server CodingLover31-Jan-13 23:57 CodingLover 31-Jan-13 23:57  This is from main power. And yes, I set the correct power profile too. I cannot post a screenshot here, since there is no way to upload an image If you've never failed... You've never lived...

I disabled all the power plans (set timers to never) and the issue is still the same. So I'll contact the support and see. If you've never failed... You've never lived...
