How to stop Windows from Locking Up every X minutes?
 

My windows box seems to lock up if I do not use it for 10 minutes or so

how do I prevent it from locking up period?

thanx!

Go to control panel>power options and set your sleep modes, monitor shutdown time, etc etc.

It locks up as in freezes, or locks up as in it goes into hibernation (standby mode)?

dont waste money on watches and buy a good computer. also, stop donwloading and installing junk with spyware and such.

Ive never had a virus or spyware and i dont even use antivirus stuff.

My computer works fine.

standby and what not (asks me to put in my password again)

I have never gotten a virus or a bug either, what the hell are you talking about???

its just a security feature on my laptop that I want to take out! lol

I think i found it, let's wait 10 mins and see!

power savingssss is gay mang

yo bdjuf
you dont like me anymore or something? :(

I don't think you found shit...I think I pointed you to it. :winkwink: :pimp

you are too kind

Oh. I thought you meant crashing

all good yo, alllll good!

but still, invest your money in other places than watches :2 cents:

buying the watch is not an investment, I just get to wear a nice watch for a bit and lose maybe 25% afterwards.

I still do not know what to invest in :(

stop reading GFY

Buy a mac.

hmm, still havent solved the problem :(

bump for the answer... ;)

new cars and powdered eggs

go to : control panel - display - screen saver tab

uncheck the box where is says "On resume, display Welcome screen"

that looks like it! thanx alot!

anytime. glad you got that fixed now.

the preceding has been windows 101 by bujuf.

I think as soon as the stores open you should go out and by something.
you will feel better.
and the guy in the store needs the money, he has a wife and kids to feed.

it is already answered dude. :thumbsup

Use Firefox instead of IE

Has nothing to do with a pc locking up and asking for a password.

Whoring yourself tonight?

Check your fans

just go buy something, you'll feel better
