First is that I have it set up where you don't require password on wake-up. However, when we wake the computer up, we still require a password to get back in.I also set display to where it won't shut off for 30 minutes and sleep mode won't activate after 1 hour. Well, my wife (owner of the Windows 8) is using taking with skype, because of this, the computer believes she is not using the computer. Even though the monitor is set to not go off after 30 minutes, it still wants to go off after about 2 minutes.I have looked to see how to not make the computer go to idle after only 2 minutes, but I only came up with a solution where you have to download a program. I don't think I should have to download a program just to keep the computer from going into idle mode even after all the other settings have been made to insure this doesn't happen. I also should not require a password after waking up the computer from idle when that option is selected not to happen.</blockquote>
