I have set the power saving options to go into sleep after 20 mins, this setting seems to work fine in Media Centre. and the sytem only goes to sleep when all is idle.

The issue is, that when media centre is closed and I am using a tool to rip and re-encode a DVD, the system still insists on going to sleep after the 20min period, even though there is an application busy with the CPU running at 80%!

Any Ideas?
