Hi Guys.
I'm trying to use an old laptop as a network storage.....
I have drive mapped as a network drive on a PC (Win 8) and a Laptop (Win Vista)
The old laptop is running Win 7 Ultimate. I can wake on lan, which is what i want, but the laptop won't sleep automatically. (i want to be able to leave the laptop in another part of the house out of the way without remote desktopping or having to go and tell it to go to sleep everytime)
Any Ideas / workarounds?
Thanks in advance!
