I have my hard disk to never shut down because I found it interfered with downloading programs.

Do you just accept the default setting there? And, since I've changed it, what is the default setting and what are you using if you don't mind saying :) Thanks much.

It is the operation of your computer like waking it up ETC that is the problem. I always turn that hibernation stuff off myself. The hard drive is personal preference.

I have changed hibernate and sleep to Never, but what about the hard drive itself. In earlier windows versions I think we were always supposed to set that to Never. also. This system would sleep/hibernate in 20 or 30 minutes and there was nothing I could do to wake it back up- black screen and no sound. What do others do with these settings?
