XP keeps going into sleep mode whether I am working on it or not...
I have changed all my power options to never hibernate and never go to standby...
This is really irritating, can someone please help ASAP.

Welcome

Maybe you need to change the Power Scheme preset to one that prevents any power saving measures.

You can do this in "Power Saving Properties":

1. Click Start, click Control Panel--> (classic view), and then click Power Options.

2. In the "Power schemes" drop-down menu, choose "Presentation"

3. Click 'OK'

That should do the trick.

Right-click on Desktop Screen- Select properties- Click on Screen Saver tab- Click on Power button- Change the power scheme option to "Home/Office Desk"- Click on OK to save and exit the window. This should resolve the issue and hope it resolves.
