Close lid options 600E W98SE

How do I change action performed when I close screen lid? It is suspending when I close it, but I want it to only shut off screen and keep working.

I don't have this option in Power Options, as someone told me I should.

Does anybody know how to otherwise access the setting, reg hack or other?

Thanks in advance.

Do you have the Battery Maximizer/Power Management program from IBM installed?

Now I do! That worked, tfflivemb2.

I did try to install it when I first set up laptop, but had some kind of error. I went ahead and installed all other tweaks and software and got everything working good, defragged, etc. I forgot about retrying Batt Max thing until your advice. It installed fine and option I wanted is now set.

Thanks, I'm glad I discovered this forum!
