  3. why does my power buttons which are turned to never stop working

    I do not want my display to sleep or shut down when I am at work so I have the power & sleep settings set to never. However, every time I shut down my computer, the display settings automatically reset to the default. Your "solution" above resets them to
    default as well ... which is not the problem.

    The problem is, it won't keep the Power & Sleep settings I choose once the computer is shut down and turned back on.

    Hi Pete.

    First off, go it your "Advance Power Settings" and reset to defaults, restart device, test.

    If that fails see if you get any hits by entering to a command prompt(admin)

    powercfg /requests

    Hi Ken,
    You hit it.*Biggrin

    [DRIVER] High Definition Audio Device (HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0892&SUBSYS_1043860B&REV_1003\4&165326bb&0&0001)
    An audio stream is currently in use.

    I tried:
    powercfg -REQUESTSOVERRIDE DRIVER "High Definition Audio Device" SYSTEM.

    but it didn't work.
    Still showing in powercfg

    Found 2 identical drivers "High Definition Audio Device".
    Deleted one of them.
    Everything works.
    Thanks Ken, for the heads up where to look.
