I have the Italian version of windows ME, so the terms may be a little
different.
Go to the screen properties windows (right click on your desktop and then
choose *properties*). Go to the screen-saver page. Look at the bottom of the
windows. You should see an *energetic saving* section here. Go there and
change the settings.
Hope this helps.
