I have reinstalled epower management.  I have all the settings on sleep or hibernate.  I can not understand why it keeps shutting down.  I am loosing all my tabs I leave open to work on later and sometimes they are not keeping in recent history.  Not to mention, I have to wait on it to boot up when I think I can open the lid and go to work.

    So, my computer is STILL shutting down!!  I did find in control panel options: balanced, high performance and power saver.  Within those options you select your times but you can then go into advanced settings which I did.  Under hard disk I have it set to only turn off after 2880 minutes which is two days.  I had it plugged in last night, used the function button to put it to sleep, closed lid and this morning I had to turn it on from full boot up.

    Why is this happening!!  One thing different is that it said Chrome did not shut down properly and did restore my tabs.  My desktop icons were askew as well which leads me to believe something different happened shutting it down but this needs to stop.
