    Hi all, I have a Win 7 64bit hp 8570w laptop. I've set the screen server to be active in 5 minutes. Other power management settings are as follows. Dim the display - 5 minutes Turn off the display - 10 minutes Put the computer to sleep - 30 minutes However, like around 2 minutes after I didn't use the laptop, it goes to sleep mode. Any idea why really happen that? If required more information please let me know. Thanks in advance :)

      Is this on mains power or battery? Are you sure that you set the correct power save profile as the active one?

        This is from main power. And yes, I set the correct power profile too. I cannot post a screenshot here, since there is no way to upload an image :)

          Sounds like a fault with the PC. I suggest you call HP support.

            Hmm. I disabled all the power plans (set timers to never) and the issue is still the same. So I'll contact the support and see.

              Yeah, this sounds like something specific to your hardware.
