| | Any Way to Lock Laptop when closing lid? I am wondering if there is any way to set my laptop in Vista so that when I close the lid it automatically locks the computer, forcing anyone who wants to use it to type in a password. Thanks. |

| | Re: Any Way to Lock Laptop when closing lid? Go to Control Panel\Power Options and click on "Chose what closing the lid does". Make your choices, and also choose "Require a password", under "Password protection on wakeup" (Save changes).
