Guess what?! The poblem is fixed! When I messed it up by trying to do those
changes, and the PC went to sleep and wouldn't wake up, except that I shut it
down and start it up again, what I did was go back into Power Options and
clicked on "Restore Plan Defaults". It is now working just fine! I haven't
seen it's performance over a long period of time, but for the first time the
screen saver came on and then eventually the Display went off and the PC went
to sleep! Wow! Just the way it should be! So, I would say that some Tech
person made some changes before it was boxed and forgot to put it back
because we certainly made no changes. It's a brand new PC. Glad it's
working. Thanks for trying to help. Connie

No problem Connie,
Take your time. I'll get a notice when you reply back next.
It sounds like you may not have opened a elevated command prompt, but
instead a regular unelevated command prompt. Double check with step 1 to
verify that you have opened a elevated command prompt.

Hi Brink, I've taken a quick look at the link you sent, and it looks
like I may find the resolution there, but I must leave for work now, and
tonight we have company coming so I don't know how much time I'm going
to have to get back to this. So, please bear with me, and check back
here from time to
time, even late tonight I might have a chance to try something. But I
do
want to get this resolved, so I will post back. Just one thing....I
looked
at Disk Clean-Up and there's no "Hibernation File Cleaner" in the list.
I do
not have the "hibernate" option either in the list where Sleep,
Shutdown,
Switch User, etc., is found. Anyway, I will try to take time to explore
this
later tonight, and post back. Any more you can say on the matter in the
meantime will be helpful. Just a note, however.....this is a brand new
PC
under warranty. Thank you. Connie
Brink, one more thing. I just went into cmd.exe to enable the
hybernation,
and after typing "powercfg -h on" and pressing enter, it said "You do
not
have permission to enable or disable the Hibernate feature." I am the
only
user on this PC. I signed in with the password. What gives? Got to get
to
work now. Will check back tonight. Thank you. Connie
