My computer is logging off automatically after not being
used for a short time. The screen saver comes on and
then I'll hear the log off chime. not sure how to undo
this.
 
Hi Ben,

Right click the Desktop/Properties/Screen Saver tab, look at the options
for your Screen saver and also Uncheck the "On resume, password protect"
option.

Also in the Monitor Power settings using the Power button. Look on the
Advanced tab, and the Options section, uncheck the "Prompt for password when
computer resumes from standby" option.

"Turn off monitor" refers to the screen saver coming on.
Adjust the time interval.
OK
 
Right click on Desktop>Properties>Screensaver tab, uncheck
box 'return to login.......'
