Screen Saver Quit
For some reason, the sreen saver quit working. I have changed the setting in "Display Properties" to different times click>apply>OK, but this does not fix the problem. I have it set for 15 minutes.
Secondly, I have the monitor set to turn off after 20 minutes of non use in "Power Options Properties", and this does not turn the monitor off either. This box is clean of virus, spyware ect. with recent updates & scans, as well as ZA firewall. Running XP Pro SP 2. |

You have some background or foreground activity that is telling the screen saver and power management that the machine is in use.

Thanks for thr reply GLC. After I made the first post, I went to "Power Management Properties", and changed the time from 20 min to 25 min, and low & behold both are working today...Go Figure...a Mystery!
