    My Studio 15 keeps going to sleep every few minutes regardless of what I'm doing with any amount of charge remaining on the battery. I have it set to go to sleep with 25 minutes of inactivity on battery but that doesn't seem to affect it. It stays awake when it needs to on AC power. The battery isn't worn out, it's only 17% worn and still holds hours of charge. Any ideas?

    You could try changing the sleep settings on battery in advanced power management.

    Already set to something that shouldn't behave like that, it should only go to sleep if I don't touch it for 25 minutes.

    Hi tipoo,

    My name is Munawar I work for Social Media and Community Outreach Team at DELL.

    Update the BIOS on the computer which should change the settings to default on sleep mode.

    Link to update BIOS: Drivers and Downloads | Dell [United States]

    Hope this helps
