I think what you want is,
Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Power Options

(unless your problem is manually putting it to sleep isn't working, than I don't know)

Actually i tried changing the settings but still.. i mean when i press the sleep button on the shut down screen or whatever it is it does the actions of the (SWITCH USER) thing.
