There are two stages to the sleep mode, One is a low power condition. That is the real sleep mode. There is also a time that will shut the machine off. You can go into the machine setups and shut that timer off.
turning off all the power saving items does not help this- it just ensures that it doesn't automatically power down your hard drive or shut off power to your monitor automatically when you aren't using it.
May I suggest Hibernation Mode as an alternative? this mode saves everything you are doing to disc and shuts your computer down completely. when you turn it back on, it will restore what you were last doing onto the screen, so you can pick up where you left off.
you can find more information on this and sleep mode from here: http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/Help/335c6a5d-0304-4af1-b135-6bf6c124dc111033.mspx#EZAAC

Alternatively, You don't shut it off - just let it goo to hibernate/sleep mode.
