User login time limit

Post by Ken Williams »

How do you extend the time allowed when computer is idle, before you have to type in the user password to get back to the desktop? I'm running Windows XP home edition.

Thanks,
Ken

Ken,
Go to Start, Control Panel, Display, Screen Saver, and adjust the "wait" time in that window. I think this is what you're wanting to do.
