Just purchased an Aspire R11 and when I rotate the screen all the way around to use it as a tablet, the screen goes to sleep. The screen will stay awake in tent mode but as soon as it is folded all the way around it will go to sleep. I have checked all the settings I know and nothing I can find that has fixed it. I even enabled tablet mode and it still goes to sleep. Anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Question from bobdole462 : "Acer Aspire R11 going to sleep when folding screen"

I just purchased an Acer Aspire R11 and when I fold the screen all the way around to use it as a tablet, the screen goes to sleep. I have checked all the settings I know and even enabled tablet mode but it still goes to sleep when it is folded all the way around. Is there a setting that I am missing? Thanks for any help that you can provide and Happy Thanksgiving!
