Go to help and support by the start button. Type in sleep. Then click on common power problems then go to power trouble shooter. You will check the box (fix all problems), then see what happens.

I just tried that and then left the computer for an hour. It didn't go to sleep so something seems to have worked.
I'm not sure if this will hold, but I'll keep testing it.
Thanks for now.
Doctor.
