How do I stop my computer from hibernating overnight?

I want to use my computer thru the night (burning my slideshow DVDs that take
a lot of time) and I was doing this overnight when I was running XP. Now with
VISTA I come down in the morning and my DVD is ejected but the process didn't
finish... I assume because my machine is asleep ( hibernating, conked-out ,on
vacation?)
How do I change the settings?
Thank you!

select your power plan, click on change plan settings, then on change
advanced plan setings, scroll down to the SLEEP section.
