I'm pretty sure that this is the same in Win98 as it is in Win2000 and WinXP.

Go to the Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Power Options and then click on the "Advanced" tab. There should be an option for what to do when you close the ld of your laptop. In XP it is a drop-down box, but in Win98 it might be a simple checkbox. If you can't find that setting, then let us know and I will double-check on one of my Win98 laptops.

On my Win98SE setup, it's not on the Advanced tab, it's on a "Power Options Properties" tab labeled "Suspend/Resume Options". One of the check boxes is "Will not suspend even if LCD is closed".

Thanks for the follow-up, Neil. That sounds right. I thought it was some kind of checkbox in Win98, but I'd forgotten the different tabs.
