Notebook Power Settings

[boffo]

I have a new Vista Notebook computer and I'm just wondering something.
In Windows XP if you want to adjust the screen power settings you just mouse right click on the desktop and then go into properties to adjust monitor power settings.


Now, the monitor on the new notebook keeps shutting off after 10 minutes if I don't touch a key and I want to stretch this out to 25 minutes or so.
But the old Windows XP way of adjusting power is gone and I can't figure out how to adjust power settings in Vista.


I've been hacking around and can't find the answer. Does anyone out there know how to adjust power settings in Vista for the screen on a notebook?
Thanks for any input.

If this is the toshiba, you may have there settings in control panel. My toshiba has spot in control panel/power options and then pick toshiba power saver. If may also be on the task bar.
Hope this helps some.

Right click on the desktop like you did in XP, then select 'Personalize', then 'Screen Saver'. Power Management is on the bottom of the Screen Saver Window. Don't know why they MS designers didn't put it right on the Personalize window with everything else.

Thanks Samcan and Horney Senior both of those methods accomplish what I was looking to do. (And BTW it is a Toshiba.)
Thanks again.
