When i used to leave my Windows XP machine, after two minutes it would go to
the screensaver, it would stay on there for 30mins before i told it to go to
standby. Then, around two months ago, its started going to the 'log on'
screen every four minutes, when all i want it to do is stay on the
screensaver like it used to.

How can i stop it from doing this?

Thanks

If you didn't change those settings, who did?

Control Panel > Display > Screen Saver tab > remove the checkmark from
'On resume, display Welcome screen'

Control Panel > Power Options > Power Schemes tab > make changes as you wish
