    Guys,

    Quick one...

    In WinXP, where do I change the time delay applied when the system is inactive and it switches back to the multi-user account login page ? It seems to be doing this after 10mins and I'm loosing connectivity. Cant find the setting....:eek:

    Thanks
    Bob

    I think this occurs when you resume from screensaver when you have password protection on resume enabled.

    Start --> Settings --> Control Panel

    Display Settings

    Click on the ScreenSaver tab and change the screensaver timeout. Also you could untick the box that says password protect on resume. You might also check the power saving settings.
