drive you crazy in a small peer to peer environment.

By Default Windows sets machines as home/office. this turns the monitor off
after 15 mins. and harddrives off after 30mins.
This will lock up this machine after 2 hours and requires rebooting all
machines to re enable file and printer sharing.
When using Win98 is a peer to peer environment having one machine acting as
a file server Turn off Power Saving to this box.

Select = Allways On
System Standby = Never
