My computer keeps sleeping randomly while playing TF2
What my PC is doing is reeeeeallllly weird.
I keeps on sleeping and I have to turn it back on again after a few hours of TF2.
How can I fix this?

This should help:

-Go to Power Options in the Control Panel. In Windows 10, you can get there from right
clicking on the start menu and clicking on Power Options.
- Click change plan settings next to your current power plan.
-Change "Put the computer to sleep" to never.
-Click "Save Changes"

My usual plan has “Turn display off” and Put Display to Sleep” at “never” and still it randomly sleeps after a few hours of TF2.

Your PC is just tired of playing TF2... Just kidding, the only thing I can think of, there is a combination of keys that let your PC go to sleep, disable sticky keys.
Another thing, not all KB's have this, but some have a key, that if hit, brings your PC in a dormant state.

Without knowing anything about your PC: overheating can cause computers to shut off/sleep. Make sure your temps are normal.
