When I was done goofing around, I turned the power off. When I powered it back up, my name appeared and the password space. When I entered the password, it wouldn't take. Someone told me the "caps lock" might've been on. Also, do I need a number as well as letters for this password? Thanks, Bill I got my new computer running yesterday with Windows 7.

This also helps with the perception that the computer starts up much faster than if you were to boot it up. Microsoft has made a lot of improvements in the operating systems ability to sleep and resume from sleep with Windows 7. Try it out and see what works best for you. If the computer goes into a sleep mode when you leave it on and you don't mind then leave it that way, otherwise turn it off. It's really a preference. Hope I answered your question and thank you for passing by. @Eesti Tuvi – The reason they ask you not to turn off is because the computer will automatically enter into a period of “sleep” after a set interval of time without use.

This is most likely a default setting that requires customization. Please let me know if you still need help with this so that I can write up a quick how-to for you to help you customize this setting.
