Answer 1

Your keyboard may have a button assigned to it, if not try the following.

Go to your system properties. (right click desktop and click properties or personalize. Then click screen saver and select the time which it must be idle to display it

Answer 2

Depends on what caused it to go into sleep mode to begin with. If you pressed a button to put in standby then you most likely will have to press the same button to wake it up. If you are in standby because of a power fluctuation (on a laptop) then you will need to switch from battery power to ac power to get it to wake up.

Sometimes you just need to press the power button to wake it up.
