my standby is set at three hours and the password prompt
for standby is turned off. Yet if I leave the computer
for ten minutes when I come back I have the welcome
screen and asks for my password. Even if I am in the
middle of an email or game. How do I get it to NOT
always ask for the password? I have had XP exactly 24
hours.
THANKS
 
Check your power options, if it's a notebook:

Start>Settings>Control Panel>Power Options.
 
I did check my power options...which is why I can tell
you that standby is set for three hours and the place
where it says to ask for password prompt is NOT checked.
and it is a pc.
