How do I turn stand-by off on my laptop?

[Sonak]

Hi all, I've got HP laptop that runs Vista but every 10 mins if I don't use it , it goes on stand-by! How do I turn this setting off? Thanks

Open Control Panel>Power Options and look for the bit where it says " change when the computer sleeps" set that to never,then do the same for "choose when to turn off the display".

Hi Daffy654 - I can't see Power Options!!!!???

Hi Sonak,on my vista PC the icon for power options is a green battery with a power lead coiled around it,do you have an icon like that in your Control Panel folder?

[daffy654]

You need to be in "classic view" to see it probably...........not sure about that one.

I found it!!!!!!! Didn't know it was in
Mobile PC>change battery settings & then Power Options

THANK YOU!!!!!

Ah,must be slightly different because yours is a laptop and mine is a desktop,I just assumed to control panel would be the same layout.Sorry.Glad you have it sorted now :-)
