Laptop Going into Sleep Mode
So my XPS M1210 Dell is about 2 years old.. Its my "beside the bed for emergencies while sleeping" laptop... and since I'm recovering from surgery right now... and wanna actually WORK from bed.. it's decided to take a shit on me.
It will boot up just fine.. Windows will load.. and about 3 mins in... the screen will go black..
I could then put it in standby.. and hit the power button... and it'd come back on.. then go back dark in 3 mins...
I've switched all the power settings to "never".. so as to not allow "sleep" mode... however.. I then went into advanced in the power settings and selected to never enable standby just to see.. so now I can't put it into standby and wake it up either...
Anyone had anything similar? How did they fix it?
It never runs on battery.. always on AC...
