    I have Windows XP Professional, two users, mine is the admin account. After my computer is inactive for 2 minutes (ie no mouse movements or keystrokes) it goes back to the log-in screen where i have to click on my user icon and re-enter my password. The reason this is annoying is that if I want to watch a dvd on my pc I have to move the mouse around at least once every two minutes or have my movies interupted by having to re-log on. I can't find where to turn this function off or change the time from 2 minutes of inactivity to 2 hours. Thanks in advance!
