I am running Windows 7 on an HP laptop and after the machine sits idle, it locks and I must enter the password to continue. I cannot find anything in the control panel to affect this, I thought it was with screen saver, but see no settings for this. How can I disable this locking, or alternatively, make the timeout much longer?

Right click the Desktop then Personalize/Screensaver and uncheck "On resume require a password" Or... Is the laptop going to sleep? If so try this - Control Panel/Power Options/Require a password on wakeup |
