    My Computer goes on standby no matter what program is running.

    It goes on standby even if I turn auto-standby off in the power options

    It goes on standby even if I do nothing.

    It goes on standby in random intervals

    Got Service Pack 1? If not, get that if you don't have it. If that's too big, I believe there's a patch concerning hibernation on the Windows Update site.
