Hello John. I now have turned off the computers ability to turn itself off and I haven't been turning it off as well.
What has happened is this:
One morning out of the blue my system wouldn't boot up. I tried and tried all day and then suddenly it did.
Did a "System Restore Point" and scanned my computer for virus and or Root Kits...Nothing. The computer worked and then stopped again once it was left idel for a period of time.
After many more attempts I got it to boot up again and this time backed up my files and did a "Full System Recovery (Back to factory settings)
Ran my scans...nothing and worked again for a period of time where I could turn the system off completly and then re-boot every time. Until it went down again.
After getting it to boot up I then changed the settings and I leave it on now for good.
That's it.
Douglas
