My laptop wont stop going to sleep...

[OldDevlin]

Hi, I've got a Medion laptop running Vista, less than a year old, and it's suddenly developed a habit of going to sleep 5-10 minutes after i leave it.

I've tried the power settings, set them so that it should never sleep, but it's not doing the trick.

Also, it requires my password upon waking, and yet I've made sure to tick the box in Power Options that stops the password from being required.

Help...I'm at a loss...

Unfortunately I've not got any restore points (not a techy kinda guy), so I'm at a bit of a loss now.

Looks like the screensaver was the culprit. Never even thought of that.

Thanks for solving the problem, it wasn't a big deal, but it was an annoyance
