Has your computer ever fallen asleep while you were watching a video because you didn't move the mouse periodically?

That used to happen to me with one of my older computers (I want to say it was a Windows XP PC), but that's about it. It was probably a quirk of older operating systems that weren't quite used to the idea of streaming video because I don't remember it happening at all with my Windows 7 PC. And it definitely never happened with Win10.

About fifteen years ago we used our laptop as a portable DVD player while on vacation. After the second time it shut itself off, I changed the sleep mode to a three hour delay. The rest of the weekend went off without a hitch.

This makes me realize that its been a long time since I fell asleep at my computer. It used to happen quite frequently.
