I know this is a stupid question and I hope you guys can can just point me in the right direction and it's an easy question.
The timer on the screen fade, I found where to change it, but now I can't find the setting again. Where is it?
Thanks.

these guys are giving you the correct answer although it is the noob answer. Do you need the registry edit to set a custom time?

don't mean to come off as rude, just asking

If that's what he would have asked we could have helped him with that. But from his question it seemed like all he wanted was the simple setting page.

Yes, there are 2 power options: Backlight and Power.

There are registry keys to manually change them, but it is much easier to modify through Start>Settings>System>Power. If you would like the registry keys, I can dig them up for you.
