Windows 7: redoing power settings remotely

Hello,



My laptop connects to my desktop wirelessly allowing me to watch stuff stored on it and do other things. Recently, I started using the power settings so that after 30 minutes the computer goes into one of the sleep modes at which time access is shut off to the laptop. Is there anyway the laptop can prevent the power settings from taking effect when it is already connected?

Thanks,
Ben

Only way I know of is to manually turn it off and on. You might be able to write a script to get it to do what you want.
