Under the Powere Schemes tab of the Power Options icon within control
panel you can tell the system to go into System Standby mode after x
minutes/hours of inactivity. Then under the Advanced tab you can check
the "Prompt for password when computer resumes from standby". Input
your windows logon password and the system will resume.
