Hello,
I've been having a problem with Windows Vista x64 that has occued intermittently for the last two or three months.
All of sudden, sometimes when I'm away from the computer the PC is placed into, from what I can determine, a sleep mode.
The monitor is turned OFF but the PC power light is ON. The PC doesn't respond to the keyboard or mouse and a 1/2 press of the power button.
The only method I've been able to get back to Vista is to Power OFF the PC then power back ON again.
I've checked all the power settings including the advance settings and the bios, but haven't yet been able to resolve the problem as it only occurs perhaps from one to three times per month.
I looked in the Event Viewer, however I'm not certain exactly where to look.
Event Viewer: Under Administrative Events there are warning and errors such as
Errors found:

The previous shutdown at 1:21:41 PM on 11/26/2017 was unexpected
I've also checked all the HID device power management settings disabling any power control of a HID device.
Greyed out " Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"
Unchecked "Allow this device to wake up this computer"
I also checked the monitor settings and disabled any settings that could potentially put the monitor to sleep or turn it off. (Monitor a Nec V323-2 )
Perhaps it's a hardware related issue? The Thinkcentre PC is nearly 10 years old. I probably need to clean the motherboard, even though it's been vacuumed out motherboards as they age a type of dirt builds up on the mb circuitry that can only be removed by washing the motherboard with some mb cleaning solution then allowed to dry.
