Try this: set your power settings to NEVER turn off. This includes monitor, standby, even screen saver. Make sure the screen is always on, let it sit for a few hours and see if it gets disabled then.
I noticed the power saving mode on the USB devices before and turned that off. I think my power settings mode is on never turn off, but I can look at those settings and make that change if necessary.

Doesn't Windows do this when you click Repair the Wireless Network Connection? There are times where I click on repair, it goes through the motions, says it's connected, then I can't access the internet...
