Most laptops can't do that, try going into control panel, click on power options, set your hardrive to never sleep, then try to close it and see if that helps

Step 1: Disconnect laptop from monitor.
Step 2: Obtain desktop tower (computer).
Step 3: Plug tower into monitor.

I've colored these for your ease of use.

Thank you, come again.

It doesn't really matter if its fully closed does it?you dont have light coming from the other screen so how does it bother you?or are you lazy and want to set stuff on it?

I had this problem a couple years ago. I don't know if this will work for you, but what I did was close the laptop so it was at a 45 degree angle to the desk, (just enough for the screen to turn off) and it stopped going into sleep mode. I kinda doubt it will work though, only because the laptop I was using was really old. lol

On mine, power options, it give you the option of what to do when the lid closes, click "nothing" instead of power down, hibernate or sleep. Also under power options click "never" instead of setting a time for it to go into sleep or hibernate. I have Vista, but I believe it's the same in any Windows OS
