You can adjust how long your computer waits before sleeping or
hibernating-or prevent it from turning itself off altogether. But be careful. On
a battery powered laptop, inhibiting sleep or hibernation can result in data
loss if the battery dies. Here's how to prevent your computer from entering a
power-saving state:
On the Select a power plan page, click Change plan settings next to the selected plan.
On the Change settings for the plan page,
click Change advanced power settings.
On the Advanced settings tab, double-click
Sleep, double-click Sleep after, and
then do one of the following:
If you're using a laptop, click On battery
or Plugged in (or both), click the arrow, and then click
Never.
If you're using a desktop computer, click Setting, click the arrow, and then click Never.
Double-click Hibernate after, and then do
one of the following:
If you're using a laptop, click On battery
or Plugged in (or both), click the arrow, and then click
Never.
If you're using a desktop computer, click Setting, click the arrow, and then click Never.
If you also want the display to stay turned on, double-click Display, double-click Turn off display
after, and then do one of the following:
If you're using a laptop, click On battery
or Plugged in (or both), click the arrow, and then click
Never.
If you're using a desktop computer, click Setting, click the arrow, and then click Never.
Click OK, and then click Save
changes.
