You need to go into your system settings, and either turn sleep mode off so that it never goes to sleep, or change the amount of time before it goes to sleep. Put it at much higher than 10 minutes.

You can adjust timing of sleep mode in power options (power managment) of control panel. you can choose never in standby, so it will never goes in sleep mode automatically.
if power management is already on never and your computer still goes in sleep or standby mode, it could be problem with powermanagment you can adjust them in bios.
if bios also ok then it could be because of heat up. some computer have sensor inside, when they over heat, automatically shut down.
it could also possible you pressed sleep button on keybaord. so it automatically goes to sleep mode.
if all above are ok then try to clean your computer from virus.

Try the power options icon in control panel and check all of your settings in there. If nothing there, try the display icon in control panel and check the screen saver tab for options...

OK - easy fix here.
Right-click on your desktop (close all open windows first!) and select PROPERTIES.
Then select the SCREENSAVER tab at the top.
Select POWER button located bottom-right of dialog box.
Change the settings from there...ok!

right click on desktop (main screen), properties, screen saver tab, power button (on the bottom of the window), under "system standby" make sure that it says "never"

If you go into your system settings, you can change how long it stays on before it goes to sleep. You can turn it off if you like.

right click on a blank part of the desktop and click on properties and one of the tabs should let you adjust the settings.
