    hi all

    i have a alien ware m18x laptop.

    just wondered if anyone knows or has the same laptop as me on how to make the monitor inactive stay on longer as it seems to go blank after 1min if not in use.

    also does anyone know any good tricks for my laptop and also are there any good things you can do on windows 7 ?

    Hello Matt, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    In your power plan settings, you'll have a Turn off the display option like below that you can set for how many idle minutes before it turns off your screen while on battery and plugged in. :)



    Hope this helps,
