How do stop my new netbook from asking for a password when I leave it idle for 5 or 10 minutes?

April 14th, 2011 2 comments

OS= Windows 7 Starter.
I just bought my wife an HP Mini netbook. If I leave it idle for 10 or 15 minutes, I have to re enter the password. Where can I change or adjust this? I’ve done it before in Vista and XP, but I can’t remember how to do this. Thank you.
