Power option properties

[RichM]

Hello,

I have power options properties set to turn off the monitor after 5 minutes
and turn off hard disk to never and no screen saver. I have 3 monitors. If I
reboot the monitors turn off after 5 minutes of inactivity, but after working
on the computer for an hour or two the montiors stop turning off after 5
minutes of inactivity.

Using XP Pro.

Can someone help?
Thank you.

It's a desktop. I will look at these websites.
