By "leave the room" do you mean to sleep or some extended period? If you're using Windows check the power management settings in control panel, perhaps it thinks you have a laptop. :D
BTW, I'd recommend you buy a UPS anyway. The cheap ones (<$200) won't provide power for long in the event of a total failure, but they'll catch those sub-second dips and glitches which are usually enough to reset your machine.
