Dear friends,
The desktop i have goes into sleep mode, immediately after 2 minutes of idleness! I have configured my powerplan as the snaps below will show. Kindly help to make the PC stay awake! This is the first time it has happened! Awaiting your helpful responses!
Thanking you,
Sreedhav

Dear richc46,
The tutorial's first advise was to update the drivers! I updated the BIOS and the chipset family drivers and voila,the sleeping lion woke up and is on the prowl! Prob.solved!

BEFORE STARTING:Make sure you have the latest device drivers and BIOS installed for your motherboard.
NOTE: A out-of-date video driver or other drivers are sometimes the source of sleep mode problems. It is best to keep these up to date to resolve issues found with them
