Regards, JuergenSrvrPowerCtrl's system idle > monitor is really designed to replace your computer's stock power manager _ONLY_ when the computer is being used as a single-purpose audio/video server. If your computer has a multi-purpose role, then turn off SrvrPowerCtrl's idle system monitoring and rely on the operating system's built-in power management along with the squeezebox server PreventStandby plugin. This isn't ideal. SrvrPowerCtrl with system idle monitoring does offer some features not available this way, e.g. scheduling system wakeups for alarms, etc. I have thought about writing an external system power-state monitor utility for Windows that would add this functionality back in, but I haven't had the time yet.
