I had the same issue as well with my laptop (Asus ROG G731G) even with "When I close the lid: do nothing" set for both battery and plugged in.

Then if I do anything like open a window, it becomes clear that explorer has crashed. In XP, If you do a Ctrl Alt Delete, select the processes tab, and then select exporer.exe and press the End Process button, then File/New Task (Run...) and type explorer.exe, you can get your desktop back. But then you have to Right
