New Post: Doesn't sleep

I just recently downloaded MCEBuddy so I can convert Window Media Center recordings on a certain schedule.

Here's what I did...
  1. In MCEBuddy settings, I checked both the Start and Wake and updated the time to 16:45
  2. I chose the Stop time at a much later time (23:00)
  3. Checked all the days
  4. Checked Allow Sleep
  5. Saved the settings and clicked Start
  6. Set the Windows Media Center to record a show from 16:00 - 16:30
Currently this is what I thought would happen, considering the fact that my laptop is set to go to sleep after 5 min if there's no activity.
  1. Laptop wakes up around 16:00 to record a show
  2. Goes to sleep around 16:35
  3. Wakes up again at 16:45 to start the conversion
  4. Goes back to sleep after the conversion is done.
What actually happens though is that after I click on Start (step #5 in the first set of steps) in MCEBuddy, the laptop doesn't sleep.

Any ideas why?

By the way, I have a Windows 7 toshiba laptop and I did follow the sleep issue resolution in the Common Issues section.
