    Hi, Im in need of a bit of help! I own a Samsung R60 and if I dont use it for about 5 mins it locks, making me type in my password to unlock it. Its quite annoying. Can anyone tell me how to unlock it? Ive tried but I cant seem to do it! Thanks :)

    I presume you have Vista and it's Vista wanting a password.

    Right-click on your power icon in the system tray (bottom right of screen) and select Power Options. Top-left of the Power Options screen is Require a password on wake-up. Change that setting. You can also change the time before the computer sleeps.

    If you don't have the power icon but have the Welcome screen, then select Performance near the bottom left and then select Adjust power settings.
