    Hi,

    After the 8.1 updates my machine would bypass sleep, then shut down.

    1. Checked the power settings, tried restore defaults ect. fail

    2. elevated command prompt, powercfg /energy, found 15 problems, mist were, maybe a BIOS update, might work. The report is 7 pages long!

    3. Did not update BIOS

    4. Tried from (elevated CMD): powercfg /requestsoverride driver \filesystem\srvnet system

    this srvnet system seemed to be the troublemaker.

    Well! I spoke a little to quickly. After a couple of hours, I had to restart. so it was not sleeping.

    Re looking at the 7 pages from powercfg. I started trying to find a BIOS update:

    MB = Asus P6T SE, Bios is American Megatrend ver 0203 2/26/2009

    I watched the video on how to use "Asus EZ Flash 2"

    I get here http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P6T_SE/HelpDesk_Download/

    but the closest OS is Win 7 64bit, what update should I use in conjunction wit, Asus EZ Flash 2
