just to get back on topic for a second the computer should not go into sleep mode while it is been used regardless of settings.

if you leave the computer unattended then yes it will but if you are using it then it should not enter sleep mode

Re: Sleep mode?
 

it does though, halway through me doing something, i've brought it downstairs so the little ones can play on it, but they can't because of the sleep mode thing

does your keyboard have a sleep key or button on it it could say sleep or maybe a half moon symbol, just wondering if the keyboard has become faulty

When you switch your pc on is the fan in the power supply spinning because if it isnt it will over heat then shut down but you wouldnt get any warning of this it would just shut off ?

Re: Sleep mode?
 

the fan is working fine, i really havent a clue whats wrong with it, the pc was in Reece's room for a while but he never used it other than to bluetooth some pics onto it from his phone

Re: Sleep mode?
 

something could be getting hot and cutting out.

ps:

when you alter the sleep settings in control options / power management are you clicking Apply before closing the options down or it wont save the alterations.Yeah i know you probably have but sometimes the simple things are easiest to overlook :)
