For standby purposes, if you are not pressing the keyboard or moving the mouse/touchpad it is considered "inactive." Period.
Your power settings are likely NOT controlled by the windows power settings. I have owned 5 laptops to date (3 Toshibas) and every one of them had a different power management program installed by the company which will either override or work in conjunction with the Windblows power management settings. I know it's stupid, but I just use the machines, I don't make them.
Sounds to me like you may have had power surges or brief outages. If you were operating off your power cord and the battery was not installed, a brief outage in the power could case the machine to just power off immediately. You'd know though, because it would do a self-test once you started it back up.
Last time I checked, Toshiba had good telephone assistance available if you'd like to call them.
