Does anyone know how I stop my laptop from going into hibernation when Im not using it?

Its ok, I think Ive answered my own question.

I went to Control Panel, then to Power options, then chose the 'never' option under the 'system standby' section.

Now if someone can just confirm if this is right :)

should do it
check the HDD spindown time aswell...

The 'turn off hard disks' option is currently set to 30 minutes. Would I be ok setting this to 'never'?

Turn off hibernation, set it to never turn off the hard disks, but set it to turn the screen off after 60 minutes (screensaver after perhaps 30).

Unless you're running on battery power...
