You could have a process, driver or service preventing sleep. Open an elevated command prompt and type powercfg /REQUESTOVERRIDE any thing listed in will prevent the screen saver from firing.

Then there isn't anything in a blocking state. Can we see your current power config.

You can run this and upload the txt file created on your desktop.
powercfg /Q >> %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\power.txt
