Want to lock desktop after waking from standby/hibernation
In all my experience, I have always seen XP wake up from either
standby or hibernation and the desktop would be automatically locked. For some reason I have a user whose machine is not doing this. When he wakes it up from hibernation, it goes right back into his desktop. I got the same result waking it up from standby: right back to his desktop. How can this be toggled to lock desktop upon waking? Thanks in advance.

Enable (put a check in the box) Prompt for password when computer resumes from standby (it works for hibernation too).

Try this...
Visit http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909605 and click on FixIt from problematic machine. This should address the issue. It also has the manual procedure to follow.
Btw, "prompt for password when computer resumes from standby" option is responsible for this behavior Hope this helps. yerk55 wrote: Want to lock desktop after waking from standby/hibernation 21-May-10 In all my experience, I have always seen XP wake up from either standby or hibernation and the desktop would be automatically locked.
