By the way, I did some testing and found that the KB is not 100%
accurate.

I used by SB2 to bring my PC out of standby. It then did a  ping -t
192.168.2.3 <Server IP> to send a stream of pings to my server.

It still shut down after a few mins. The power settings on my PC have
hibernation/standby set to never. The only thing set to power save is
the monitor.

I also wrote a small app which called this Windows API function
"SetThreadExecutionState" using the execute plugin. See this article
http://tinyurl.com/asgb8  
for an explanation on what this is supposed to do.

The system still shutdown. I believe this happened because the thread
which made the call (my app) had ended.

It would appear that the actual Slimserver thread would need to make
this API call to keep the server PC running until Slimserver is
exited.

I can probably test this theory by adding a useless wait loop to my
code just to keep the thread active and see what happens.
