UNSOLVED
x51 won't sleep.
hello, well i am not to tech savy when it comes to pc knowledge, and with that said my x51 will not stay in sleep mode for more then 5mins.
i tried disabling the auto wake option, i turned the pc to standard power mode, from the high setting,
i ran the cmd powercfg -lastwake which said 1 program, something like realtek pcie family controller,which i have no idea what that is.
does anyone have any suggestions?
thank you in advance.

That's exactly what I did solrac, and then I manually tried to put the PC in sleep mode, and it woke itself up after 3mins.

Does the monitor have any USB devices plugged into it?
Also try to make sure there is nothing connected to the screen, all USB devices ( mouse , keyboard ect) must be connected to the rear of the X51 to avoid Hibernation & wake up issues....!

Have you tried:
"If you have problem of Win 7 not staying in sleep mode, check power settings of your network card. Go to Device Manager, Network Adapters, Realtek PCIe GBE etc. and than Power Management. Uncheck "Allow this device to wake the computer".

Does the monitor have any USB devices plugged into it? If yes, disconnect them and plug them into the X51. The USB mouse and keyboard should be plugged into the USB ports on the rear of the X51.
