My computer will not go into sleep after the set amount of time i've set it
to. the screen turns off but that is all. Also, when i close my laptop the
screen stays on. i would really prefer that the screen turned off as to not
burn the monitor or anything. Any suggestions?

Make sure you've got the lastest Vista drivers for your graphics
card/chip.

Some screen savers prevent sleep/hibernate.

My laptop is running XP Home Premium, setting for lid is in the power
options properties - Power buttons

My desktop is Vista Home Premium, doesn't have a 'lid' but a similar area is

Control panel
Hardware and sound
power options
system settings
has settings for 'buttons'
