inconsistent sleep mode activation
There are times when sleep mode is not activated (control panel / power options / power saver / change plan settings / time out settings for "turn off display" or "put computer to sleep").
Recently I saw that a notification of Windows Update was raised and that stopped the computer from going to sleep. What other events can cause the computer to be delayed from this great power saving feature? I usually run about 110 watts on my desktop, but in sleep mode I only use 3.5 watts.
How can these interruptions to going to sleep be identified and quieted, so that "we" go to sleep consistently?
Thanks,
