When you say "sleep mode", if you are referring to the sleep timer, that is not turned on unless you specifically set it. If you are referring to the 'standby' mode when the TV is not receiving a signal, that feature cannot be turned on/off, it is automatic; when the TV does not receive a signal from the selected input source, it first displays a message that there's "no signal", then after several minutes the TV goes into standby. This time cannot be set/changed. To restore it to active, it's the same amount of time as turning on the TV, usually about 30 seconds or less on mine. If your computer does not shut down/sleep, and as long as it is sending a signal to the TV, it should not go into standby.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I kept Windows 7 and use a TV as my monitor as well. I found that the thing putting my monitor to sleep was only in my Windows settings. As long as a message was being sent to my TV, the feed stayed active. See Control Panel>Power Options> Edit Plan Settings (change when computer sleeps)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I think sleep mode has to be turned on each time you want to use it. I never turned it off and the TV stays on all night. I use it for netflix through a rook and that goes to a screen saver after a time but the tv itself doesn't turn off.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can turn sleep mode off. Do not need to have it on.
