I am using Windows XP. I know that I can adjust it from power options so that it turns off after some minutes of no activity. But I want to know the way to disable and enable it immediately whenever I want. I had an fn+F key shortcut at my previous laptop, however no fn+F combination works for this one.

* NO Fn+F* combination works. It is out of possibilities.
* I want to turn the display off only while it continues to work -> No htandby or hibernate.

*I know Wizmo but I want to solve it without new software. Plus, I dont trust Wizmo. It is not included in download.com. Maybe it spreads spyware or similr

Fn + F8 (CRT/LCD) toggles you back and forth... Now if you had a CRT the screen shots would go there...

If you hold power button down for 4 or 5 seconds it will usually wake the computer up from hibernation.

right click on the ac power/battery power icon (in taskbar)-->click adjust power properties, and you can do it from there
hope that helps =D
