Turnoff the display without letting the device to go into sleep in Windows 8

How to turn of the display in Windows 8 without locking or making computer go to sleep ?

The problem is that when I enable ‘Turn off display after x minutes’ feature from control panel, the device goes into sleep after ‘x’ minutes. It seems that both the options – turn off display/put computer to sleep are connected. It devices goes automatically

to sleep mode as soon as the display is turned off. So, is there any method to turn off the display of the device without it going into sleep mode ? Also, whenever the display turns off, the device automatically locks. So, is there a way by which I can disable

it ?

My objective is to turn off the display and keep the system running.

Thanks
