No, it's the other way round - it works on all machines but you have to disable the automatic power-off to see the effects. If Windows is able to pull the plug on your machine this means that it has access to the Power Management interface of the BIOS. Go to the BIOS setup and disable everything that sounds like APM, ACPI or Power Management. If this does not help - bad luck. You may have success if you go to the Windows setup and disable support for those functions there, but IIRC, Windows still finds a way to pull the plug if the interface is active even if it does not use any of the other power management functions.
