Laptop Problem
Righto, I have my laptop on my desk on mostly all the time. Recently though, if i Adjust the laptop screen, e.g tilt it fowards or back, the whole laptop will just turn off like that.
It is annoying to say the least, anyone got any ideas as to why? It's not doing it all the time though.
Cheers Steve

as above,
if you cant find it,
go into your power properties/settings and set it too always on,
as atm it'll probably say Power down when lid is closed.
