My laptop wont go into standby/sleep all of a sudden. I click the button, screen goes black, sound turns off but all the lights stay on and dont go into that "blinking" status as it used to. Even the HP logo on the outside is still it up when it used to turn off when going into Sleep/Standby.

Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? I have no active programs running, just on the desktop, with no HDD access occurring. Any ideas on how to fix this issue or will it just go away?

I looked that up before. It will go into standby/sleep when i have it unplugged on any power scheme. if i have it on balance or power saver it will go into sleep plugged it. the instance that is occurring is when i have it plugged in on high performance, which I use the most.

It sounds like it it may be your settings in the power plan. Double check both the Unplugged (on Battery) and Plugged in settings in the power plan that you use to make sure that they are set properly as in STEP TWO of the tutorial below for sleep for your needs.
