"Check the group policy for your account.

type gpedit.msc into the start search box and hit enter
navigate to User configuration -> Administrative templates -> control panel -> display
Change screen saver to disabled, and screen saver timeout to a high value just in case."

"Even better than another answer: in the same area under (microsoft server), select disable the cntl alt del requirement for login. Then set time out to 99999 to be safe.

""In gpedit, navigate to Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options -> Microsoft network server: Amount of idle time required before suspending a session""

Then reset the timeout to the desired value in minutes."
