Whenever the computer attempts to go into sleep mode, the message "going to
sleep appears" and then the computer immediately restarts. I've tried
resetting the power options to no avail. Any way to remedy this problem?
 
Hello,

This usually happens when some device (piece of hardware) wakes the computer
up from sleep. This might be your NIC card or something else. One way of
finding the culprit is by opening up Device Manager > Network Adaptors (well
you have to do this step for every hardware that might cause the computer to
come out of sleep but here I'm just giving an example of the NIC) > Find
your NIC adaptor that you use > Double click on it > Power Management tab >
Uncheck 'allow this device to wake the computer' > Click OK and close device
manager.

Hope this helps.

Try turning off wake on lan and/or wakd on modem in the bios.
