When I log off but my laptop is stll on, when I go to log back on the screen just stays black but I know it is on because of the lights. I'm pretty sure it's going into standby, how do I take it off? Is there anyway I can stop it from going into that mode? Thanks in advance.
To stop it from going into standby, go to start, run and type:
powercfg.cpl
Change "System standby" to "never". This might reduce your battery life. [ theymos's advice column | Ask theymos A Question ]
