Answer 1

Your problem is how your computer is set to behave when the sleep, power, and (when you close your lid) button are pressed.

In XP to modify this right click on the desktop -> properties ->

screen-savers -> then a button in lower left of window. In the new window that pops up you can change your power settings and behaviors.

In Vista and Windows 7 this is different and harder to do, If you wish for instructions under those contact me and I'll reply promptly.

Hope this helps
