John,
As a matter of fact, it's a desktop, with a "clean" installation I made of
XP.
But who knows, maybe there *is* some other software or gadget in there
interfering. I'll check it out.
Thanks,
John

Is this by chance a laptop? If so, did you install all the "stuff" that
comes with them? Often the laptop manufacturer's will install software
that
will take over the power settings and prevent the XP one's from working.

I just installed XP pro on my new machine. Works fine.
But after X minutes (I haven't timed it) of inactivity, it goes into
standby. Then I have to type my password to get back in. That's fine,
that's
the way it works ...
But now I'd like to set it to "Never go into standby." And I've tried to
do
that.
I've gone into Power Options and tried everything. But no matter what I
do,
it seems to make no difference at all. It just behaves as before, after X
minutes of inactivity going into standby.
I'm trying to figure out why I can't set it to "Never go into standby."
Any
suggestions here?
Thanks,
John
