Do you mean if you lock the PC, its still being used in the background whilst its locked?

If so, that's normal as the computer is still running. You would be better putting it into sleep mode or into hibernation.

To view the computer events, Press Start > Right Click My Computer or Computer (for Vista) and select Manage. Click Event Viewer and look through the logs.
