No, it won't overheat. Stand-by is fine.

Standby is handled theough your windows >DISPLAY settings,\nwhich is atually the best way to go - then you simply move you mouse to wake up your computer.\n\nwake-up is handled through your BIOS settings.

I think you computer went into stand-by mode. To disable standby, Go to Start>Control Panel>Power Options.\n\nUnder Power Options properties, set power schemes to 'Always On'. You shouldn't have anymore problem after doing this.

right click on desktop > properties > screen saver > power...\n\nYou can change your standby settings from there.

Is the computer on standby? If it is then you should shutdown the computer instead. \n\nRun an antivirus program on your computer to see if a virus may be the cause as well. Also check to see if you have had any recent errors, like driver conflicts or "the blue screen of death". That could also be a cause.

Should start automatically but if you know when it stopped doing it roughly then you could do a system restore to a point just before you had problems.

Its not possible.  One of the most important aspects of a computer is called the BIOS (the Basic Input Output System).  All the hardware settings such as the system clock, device settings, boot sequence, etc. are stored there. The first thing that happens when you switch on your computer is called the POST (Power on Self Test).  During POST, the BIOS determines whether all the computer hardware runs correctly or not.  If there are some hardware issues, the computer may not boot into Windows at all (e.g. for a faulty hard drive).  This lets you know whether you have any hardware issues.\n\nIf you eliminate POST, the system has no way of determining the hardware status.  The BIOS is more close to hardware than an OS such as Windows.  \n\nPerhaps for your idea to work, it might be required to change today's computer architectures.
