Disable lock workstation on XP Pro

My domain makes my laptop lock after 30 min of inactivity. The problem
is I travel and use my laptop for movies an such on the plane. Well
every 30 min my laptop locks and I have to log back in to keep watching
the movie.

My screensaver is off, my power settings are set to never turn off, any
suggestions?

Ask your IT Dept. to make you a local account for watching your DVD's.
Then log onto it when you want to do non-company work.

other login and its a little inconvenient, any other ideas?

Nope. Copy your stuff from the one user account to the other.
