Laptop keeps on turning off

Thought I might shoot some more questions out to you all :)

My laptop keeps on turning its power off to save power I think and it has the power save feature. It turns off probably about ever 5 minutes when left on. Does anybody know how to turn this feature off?

The power settings are all in the 'power' applet in control panel. Have a peek in there and you should see options like 'turn hard disks off after x minutes' and 'turn system off after x minutes.' Just change those setting to whatever you want :)

Thanks mate,

It worked! Now I dont have to keep on pressing the start button to make it come up after like every 2 minutes!

Your a great help.
