Windows turns off display, doesn't sleep


Recommended Posts

I am running windows 7 x64

I have Comodo Internet security (antivirus and firewall)

Radeon 4850x2

And it recently started doing this.

I have the PC networked to a home server running windows server 2003, and recently changed my login on this pc to match the user I created on the windows 2003 server with which it logs in as. (This negated me having to log in twice- once into this PC and the second to a network share on the server.) I'm not sure if this is significant, but it seems like a networked pc would be less likely to sleep.

Things I've tried

- I set both display to turn off and pc to sleep after one minute then:

Unplugged all USB devices

Turned off all Network adapters

Picked up a book

One minute later the PC's display shut off, but still no sleep. Whats the deal?
