Why does my computer sleep after 60 seconds? - Crypt - Oct 20, 2017

For some reason if I don't touch my mouse my computer will go to sleep after 60 seconds. However, I have it set to not turn off until 15 minutes have gone by and I set it so sleep "never" in the power & sleep menu.

I also have my energy usage set to "high performance" so it doesn't have anything to do with the configuration of my energy usage. What am I missing here?

Read through all that and it didn't fix the problem.

So you checked the power settings in the advanced power options menu? What's the time set to?

Try a registry edit. Open up regedit and find for "785aacao" and change the attributes dword value to "2". Restart and test?

You need to go check control panel/advanced setting.
