Laptop closing question.

The_Bullman · 2003-10-02 08:23:21

Just a quick question. I want my laptop to work away when the lid/screen is closed down. Problem is that when I do this the laptop hibernates. Does anyone know how to leave the laptop switched on when closed?

Assuming you're using windows... go to the Power Options Properties (you can go there from the screensavers Tab for example). There you should find what you are looking for.
