Dreams won't let pc sleep

Sunday, March 16, 2008 by GhoS | Discussion: Object Desktop

As near as I can tell with mostly casual check but it appears my Vista pc won't sleep with Dreams running.  I suppose that is understandable considering what it does, but I would like to use Dreams yet still have the ability to have it go to sleep when I'm not using it.
Perhaps its simply a tweaking of the power settings?  Otherwise I may have to stop using Dreams

I can't resist...

So, it's dreaming while awake...wouldn't that be called day dreaming.

Apparently no one has noticed this or cares about it lol. It is ironic that I want it to sleep and stop "dreaming". I just do care about conserving energy when away from the pc and Dreams keeps it running.

Check your power management settings to see if that might be the issue. I am not having the same problem as you.


P.S. I care


Edit: I just reread your original post..... You have tried the power management settings?

Well I have it set to go to sleep in 4 hours.  I'm not at home atm, so I'll have to double check, maybe there is a setting I could set that will change this.  Good to hear someone has it working fine so maybe I can as well.
