Barrie & I have both had new laptops with Windows 8 installed.
Whereas mine is behaving quite well, Barrie's goes into sleep mode within a couple of minutes if he's reading something without touching the mouse/keys.
We've tried putting all of the various sleep mode settings to 'never' to no avail.
Googling shows that this is a very common problem and the only solutions appear to be registry changes, which neither of us are confident enough to tackle.
Anyone else have experience of this and a solution?
