Q: My monitor goes to sleep about every 20 mins if I'm not using the comp. I want to listen to CDs on the comp but the monitor goes to sleep and I can no longer hear my music unless I move the mouse around and "wake it up" again. How would I go about changing the settings so it doesn't go into sleep mode? I have Windows Vista and can't find any settings for the monitor in control panel. Please list the steps I need to take. Thanks in advance!
A: This usually is a SLEEP/hibernate function. If you right click on your desktop and choose personalize, its located in screen saver options under 'power' button. You willsee after 20 mins it will standby/sleep/hibernate. choose a longer time or disable this function. This will increase the systems power usage but will let you listen to your cds.
