i just got a new laptop for crimbo, and when i close the lid down and open it up a min after it has disconnected me from aol and i have to keep re-connecting, how do i stop it from doing this?
To stop it disconnecting when you close the lid down do this:
Control Panel<Power Options
And try and find something that says When I close the Lid: and then it will have a drop down list under it and put it to "Do Nothing".
