The BEST solution to prevent the laptop from going to sleep when it is closed and on the docking station is D. Within the Power Options of the Control Panel utility, select the option Choose What Closing the Lid Does and select When I Close the Lid under the Plugged in category to Do Nothing. This setting will ensure that the laptop does not go to sleep when it is closed while connected to the docking station.
Option A would prevent the laptop from going to sleep when it is plugged in, but it would also prevent it from going to sleep when it is not docked, which is not desirable.
Option B is not applicable because the laptop is not running on battery when it is docked.
Option C only turns off the display and does not prevent the laptop from going to sleep when it is closed.
