My Dell Optiplex GX520 goes offline
All,
I have an Optiplex GX520 that goes offline when screen saver kicks in and when on idle for for than 30 mins. Power settings are as follows:
Power Scheme:
Always On
Turn off monitor: never
Turn off hard disks drive: never
System Standby: never
Hibernate: unchecked
Notes: When the PC goes offline the EU does not have access to the LAN.
Are there any settings that I may need to check i.e BIOS? The EU has to reboot everytime she is away for more than an hour. Any suggestions?
Thank You

I checked the power settings of the NIC
I did not think about adding the following info:
Internet access: good
I can ping both of my domain controllers via CLI while the mapped drives show disconnected from the affected workstation
What happens is that the mapped drive keeps disconnecting
