Just to avoid running the battery down so fast.
Now, If you have a solid state drive, that is not an issue.

Aha!!!   Power settings!  This goes in my Windows 8 notes...  I went into power 
settings / change plan settings / change advanced power settings.  In the list 
of devices, I chose "hard disk" and there's an option for "turn  off hard disk 
after".  An option for both battery and hard drive; battery was set to 10 
minutes, plugged in to 20 minutes.  I changed then both to "never".  We'll see 
if that helps.   Do you see a reason why I should keep a time limit on battery?

Thanks again!

Karen

Karen,

I get the same message all the time using R:Base 9.5-64 and Windows 7. Normally 
if I wait a few seconds after I wiggle the mouse or press the shift key, the 
application snaps right back.
You might want to check the power settings and make sure that the hard disk is 
not set up to stop after a few minutes idling. My laptop is setup to ignore all 
power saving features when plugged in but I still get the message; I just have 
not taken the time to research the issue further since it has been (so far) 
only a minor annoyance.

Javier,

If I am idle for a period of time in 9.5, I end up with the windows "this 
program has failed to respond" or whatever the heck that message is, and I have 
to "close the program".  I have a lone laptop, no network here.   This has been 
messing me up when I'm working with temp tables, etc.   I'm assuming this is a 
windows 8 setting that I'm missing?   (No rbase timeout command is present)

Karen
