HP Mini 110-3530NR
Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit)

How to turn off screen on HP Mini 110-3530NR while using Windows Media Player.   I want to play the music with the screen off.   I have tried :

 

"Open Control Panel.  Navigate to Hardware and Sound.  Select Power options.  Select Choose what the power buttons do on the left side.  Choose Turn off the display for When I press the power button.  You can then also adjust sleep timer settings. "

 

It doesn't work.  There is no option for the  HP Mini to turn off the screen under the power options.

Krazy Toad 313021 Closing Lid doesn't work
Dear Krazy Toad, the Closing Lid option doesn't work. Remember, what I want to do is to continue playing Media Player with the screen black. The options for settings when I close the lid are:
Do nothing; Sleep; Hibernate; Close down

There must be some way to shut off the screen while still playing songs.
