Why does my Windows 8 PC keep going offline?

In the settings on my Windows 8 desktop I have set it to never sleep. And it doesn't. It stays on all the time.

That is until I use my iPad to log into it remotely. Once I have done this then my pc after 24 hours since I had a logmein session on it, it will go to sleep/hibernate and therefore when I try to log in to it on my iPad it shows as being offline. I have to physically go to my PC which shows it has power but I cannot do anything to wake it. I have to hold in the power button so it completely shuts down. Then power it up again. What is going on here?
Help, please!

Correct, the tablets are set to never hibernate, go to sleep or have the monitor turn off with a power source connected 24/7. I have confirmed that the tablets are not running out of power. If I do not logmein into the tablet then it will stay on indefinitely. Sometime within 24 hours after remoting in, the tablet will go into hibernate.

What exactly is LogMeIn doing to your tablet??

I take it these tablets are always connected to a power source and the setting on the NIC's are set not to power down.

Was this issued ever figured out? I currently have a couple of x86 tablets that need to stay on 24/7 and logmein is doing the same thing to them.

I have some pc's with logmein pro on a different account... Both that account and my personal account seem to be going offline over and over again... what can it be... this is on about 4 pro accounts and 6 free accounts..
