Windows 7 Sleep question something weird going on. Help
Hi all new here and nice to be a member.
I was wanting some help for windows 7 sleep option as theres something weird going on.
I have my windows 7 server computer set to go to sleep after 20 min and
1. If i power the computer up from standby and dont touch it it goes into sleep in 20 min (works)
2. if i play a movie which uses windows 7 to windows 7 SMB share for 30 min and stop the movie the server will turn off after 5 min (not working). I would of thought it would do this after 20 min of inactivity
so i tested this
3. if i play a movie which uses windows 7 to windows 7 SMB share for 10 min and stop the movie the server will turn off in 10 min.
there seems to be somthing happening where if the computer is used after the 20min sleep setting and then theres no activity on the server it will turn off 5min after the movie has stoped.
if i stop the movie 10 min before the sleep timer it will stop on for 10min untill it goes to sleep.
is there another setting or somthing that tells the computer to go to sleep after 5min of inactivity after the 20min mark of the sleep setting.
I just dont get why its doing this
any help
thanks
