I just started my WIN 8.1 machine this week and I found somewhere in the setups to change the LOCK SCREEN to any of photos I had available. I really hadn't though about disabling it altogether.
I think all I did was right click the screen and selected PERSONALIZE...
I also changed the WAKE-UP SETTING where if ON AC POWER I selected NEVER turn OFF... On BATTERY POWER I think I have it set to go to sleep after 30 minutes...
GOOGLE SAYS to do this
"To change your lock screen picture for WIN 8.1
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings. ...
Tap or click PC and devices, then tap or click Lock screen.
More items..."
My settings task bar is at the BOTTOM of the right corner screen
Right Click on LOCK SCREEN PHOTO then select BROWSE to select another photo.
My setup is using two 24-inch monitors and always keep my laptop lid closed. I would also be interested in finding a way to turn my laptop ON without rasing the lid and pushing the ON-OFF button.
I miss my older M90 DELL WORKSTATION that ran with the DOCKING STATION. Never had to ever open the lip of the M90...
