You can either go through the control panel, or right click on your desktop,Properties,Screen Saver,Power to get to the power settings. The 15,30,20 is in reference to the Turn off Monitor, Turn off Hard Disk, System Standby options under the Plugged in heading. When I change these all to never, and click on "Apply", the settings show that they were applied, but later, after 15 min of inactivity, my screen will turn off. Under the Advanced tab, I change the "When I close the lid of my portable computer" tab to "Do Nothing, and click "Apply", but yet again, later when I close the laptop, it goes into standby mode.
