>>Hi,
>>
>>I have a notebook running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I need to do a very long process (converting data from VFP to SQL Server). This process takes many hours. So in order to make sure that the computer does not go to "sleep" I set the Power Options as following:
>>
>>Turn Off Display - Never
>>Put the computer to sleep - Never
>>Dim the display - 15 minutes.
>>
>>Yet I see the second day in the row that the computer (after several hours) goes into the "sleep" mode. The connection to SQL Server is broken and my process stops. I have to tap on the Power button to "wake up" the notebook.
>>
>>Is this the problem with my notebook or Windows 7? Or do I misunderstand the Power Options? I would appreciate any suggestions. TIA.

I didn't know of the Hibernate option. I will look for it. Thank you.
