This procedure fixed it for me (Advent 4211 which is a wind clone):

Press Ctrl-Alt-F2 and use the pop-up to launch gconf-editor.
Navigate to Apps / gnome-power-manager / general.
De-select the option use_time_for_policy.

No need to restart, just close the config editor.

I read in another forum thread that the same problem / workround also work on a Dell Vostro 1310.
