Hi everyone,

I can't seem to get my computer to stay on "standby" mode. I have the
screensaver set to come on at 10 minutes. Under power options, I have Turn
off monitor...never, turn off hard disk..never, system standby after 20
minutes. The screen saver will come on, but then nothing more happens. I
come back 6-7 hours later and the screensaver is still on. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi Paul,

Set the monitor and hard drive to turn off after 20 minutes.
