Hi.


I was told that I should leave my computer on at night time. I try to let it stay on, but sometime during the night, it goes off. In the morning, a green light is always flashing, and I have to turn it back on. Is this bad? How can I keep my computer on all night? Oh, My friend told be I should always say what Windows I am using. So, I have the Windows XP.

sounds like its going into suspend mode...

right click on your desktop
select properties
screensaver tab
power button (at the bottom)
put your system standbay to NEVER
apply
done

all is well...

there is no problem with turning computers off when you have finished with them anymore.

Hard disks are rated at 40,000 (ish) on/ off cycles so there is no problem with turning it off.

If you don't want to turn it off, use the sleep option so it uses minimal power.

sooner or later it won't come on.
piss on them guys , leave it on.
