W7HP edition. Sometimes my computer will go to sleep, but most of the time it won't. The only time it will guarantee to go to sleep, is if I am downloading a large file. If I am downloading, 100% of the time, it will go to sleep. Is there a setting somewhere, that will tell the computer to not...

edit: I still hope this helps someone, but the problem is back. Everything was flying after the driver was installed, but after the computer went to sleep, the incredibly frustrating problem is back. Even typing this is causing annoying lags. I have nothing installed except Firefox and Avast...
