My computer started going into sleep mode when I either:
1.) Rip from a CD. It doesn't do it after a specific amount of time, sometimes it will rip the entire CD, sometimes it will only rip 1 track.
2.) Burn a CD. Sometimes I can burn an entire CD, sometimes it goes into sleep mode halfway through the process.
This is where I thought it was a problem with the CD ROM. But then, it threw me off because it started:
3.) Going into sleep mode part way through my anti virus software scanning my hard drive.
I've tried formatting, turning off sleep mode altogether. Nothing works. It doesn't completely shut down, because the green power light is still on.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I love my computer but I don't know how to fix this, I'm thinking about getting a new one.
It's an IBM ThinkCentre with Windows XP.
