Hello,

Sounds like very annoying issue, but not so tough to take anyone down. This trouble is because of the lid option defined in the Windows settings.

1. Turn off your PC, start it again.

2. Login into the administrative account.

3. Go to Start menu >> Control Panel >> System and Maintenance >> Power Options.

4. From “Select a power plan” page, click “Change plan settings” next to the currently active radio button.

5. From “Change settings for the plan” page, click “Change advanced power settings”.

6. Expand “Power buttons and lid” >> “Lid close action” from “Advanced settings” and change it to “Do nothing”.

7. Click “OK”.

Problem solved.
