have you
right clicked on the desktop, selected Personalize, screen saver and set the time for the screen saver to start?

Sue T is right
It's likely a setting in the display properties. Check your settings for screensaver, and uncheck the box next to "Password protect on resume".

If this does not resolve your problem, let us know and we'll continue to assist.
