Hello

·         You can use the keyboard or the mouse wireless?

I know, a wireless device can cause damaged screen saver. If so, please change another available cable device.

By default, the settings are different from different screensavers. Some screensavers have these options to be set in the window of the screen saver, as the text the screen saver, 3D Screensaver pictures, popular screensaver and screensaver of Windows Live Photo Gallery. Some screen savers have no options to set in the window of the screen saver, such as screen saver Aurora, the white screensaver, the screensaver bubbles, Mystify, ribbons screen saver screen saver and Windows Logo screen saver. However, if you want to change these settings for screen savers, you can customize them through the registry instead.

To resolve this problem, I would propose the following suggestions.

Method 1: Try to scanner auditor of file system (CFS) on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

Method 2: Check if the screen saver is activated, please follow the following link to get the procedure.

Enable or disable screen saver: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-your-screen-saver-on-or-off

Method 3: try to change several screensavers and see if none of them works. You can visit the following Web site to change the screen saver.

Method 4: A screen saver that shows images stops working in Windows

  • Error message: unable to save this article before you save the header entry

    Hi all

    I'm trying to insert data into the table of okc_k_processes using an API. When I run my application, I get this error message: unable to save this article before you save the header entry. I tried to open the API package body and locate the error but could not find it. How to solve this?

    Thanks in advance.

    3065204 wrote:

    No, there is no trigger on the table. But what he really tell by the error and to save the header entry?

    We do not know your code, and we do not have access either!  So, how are we supposed to know what a particular error message?  You can not save the ticket before you save the header entry is NOT an Oracle error, it's a validation error request that someone who wrote the API set.  We can only guess why you get it.

    Your API call should be to create a detail record and requires that you create a header record.

    The validation is

    • okc_contract_pub.create_contract_process and one of its dependencies
    • pa_interface_utils_pub.get_Messages
    • a trigger on a table.

    run the following

    Select *.

    from ALL_SOURCE

    where the TEXT like '% you can not save this entry before saving the header entry %.

    and you'll probably find where.

  • Satellite Pro P100 - error message-"unable to get session notifications.

    Everytime I turn it on I get the error message "unable to get session notifications.
    What is c?
    How difficult or turn it off?

    Thank you

    Hmm... It looks like a 3rd party software notification.
    You may have removed (uninstalled) a program, but the registry contains some bad entries that cause this strange notification.

    You know the free app "CCleaner"? It repairs and cleans them registry and system files. Maybe this program might help to get rid of this message...
