    Sorry about my lang just very upset with this now. I'm doing some reg tasks with it and when I leave the house for a few hours and when I come back the dam thing is in sleep mode and I left the lid open too both times it's done this now since I'm done a fresh install with my retail copy of windows 7 it was not doing this before. My laptop is all update to got all the patches everything. I've gone into the power options and every option is set to never never never sleep alway on always full power.

    thanks

    you've set it to never sleep but have you gone onto the advanced power settings and set it to never hibernate as well?
