Hi,

I just noticed that my computer doesn't go on standby after 5-10 minutes as it usually did. Does anyone know what causes this?

Thanks

It could be caused by a program or application you have recently installed...try resetting it in the Power Options Properties after you turn off your PC and do a full reboot ...that might help fix the problem. If not, these links might help you to isolate the problem. What is your OS...Vista or WinXP ?
