If you have any software which controls the Power management then uninstall it.

Open Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Power Options\Edit Plan Settings ...Put the computer to sleep to Never.

You may also run the Power Troubleshooter.

Press Windows key + W and type Troubleshooting.

  • Select Troubleshooting and click on System and Security.
  • Click on Power and follow the  onscreen steps
