I am using windows XP user to log in but it logs me back off again if I sit idle for 10 minutes. How can I change this setting?

does it actually log off? Or does it go into 'computer has been locked' mode? If it's locked, go into display settings, then screen saver tab, then check your settings under 'on resume, password protect'.
