Lately when I log off my HP computer it automaticlly turns off after a few hours. When I come to log on again, I have to turn the surge protector off and back on and then my computer begins to go through the whole long re-boot process. It takes forever. I have a USB Belkin 4 port HUB pluged into my surge protector and no other cables into the USB hub. I have had this problem a few days after I installed my new hp printer.
Can someone tell me what has happened and how to correct this?

JudyBNot sure but - one thing you can do is right click on properties on desktop and select screensaver tab then - go to power management and see how that is set up ..... decide on time you want for standby and whether you want hibernation or not. Try ''never'' for hibernation but let standby be some finite time.

Can't see the USB hub being any effect, to be honest. Equally can't see how INSTALL of drivers for printer should have caused change but - check your power settings first ANYWAYS in case they changed SOMEHOW.
