Win 7 goes to sleep at the wrong time...
I normally don't have a problem with this since I don't really use the Sleep mode but last night, I had to burn a DVD from a Back-up of my Office Files I had done so I left the computer on all night as I started to do this minutes prior to going to bed.
I woke up this morning to find that the PC had gone to sleep, Great it worked, problem is that the DVD is now a nice coaster as it didn't finish burning it. It appears the pc went to sleep before the burning process was over. I have it set up to go to sleep 1 hour after the monitor goes to sleep but, why would the system not recognize a burning process? doesn't the hard drive moves when you burn? if the sleep mode needs to start when the pc has been idle for over 1 hour and the burning process makes this impossible since the pc is NOT idle... what happened?
I just figured out that this is not the first time this happens as the last time I downloaded the Realtek audio drivers, same thing happened to me, I had set i up for 20 minutes before, and we all know how slow that site is when it comes to downloading their drivers.
Any hints on what to do or look for will be appreciated.
