How can I disable the screen saver when you run apps fullscreen.

Using vista 64 bit and I cannot figure out how to disable the screensaver for the apps full screen.   I don't know how to WMP, but when you watch a video fullscreen online he goes to the standby.   Used to be able to do it with xp.

Hello deadeyea09,
 
Welcome and thank you for viewing on Microsoft Answers - Vista Community Forums!

We need more information to be able to help on this issue.

1. what applications are fullscreen you use?

2. which site we use to play video online?

Options to disable the screen saver need to have within this player in particular, watching movies online, if there is no option to turn it off, then we need to turn off the screen saver manually. Please follow the instructions below to turn off manually:

1) click Start and then click Control Panel

2) click on Customize

3) click on screen saver

(4) select NONE under screen saver

5) click apply and close the window

Please let us know if it helps.

  • How can I disable the mouse pad when you use a mouse plug-and-play?

    How can I disable the mouse pad when you use a mouse plug-and-play? I tried to disable the driver, and nothing works.

    Hello

    Check with support of the manufacturer system, documentation online or forums that there is probably
    Shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

    Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with TouchPad entered)
    and some come with a utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock in the bottom right.

    ==========================================

    If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work)

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touchpad - the driver tab-
    Click on update driver (it comes may not do anything like MS is far behind the drivers of certification), now right CLICK
    on the TouchPad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in). RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad from working.

    The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to disable the screen saver when you watch videos in full screen in firefox?

    This only happens with Firefox, other browsers videos play normally and without interruption. I want to keep my window screen saver by default but not when watching full-screen mode.

    The Flash Player plugin must normally block the system to go to sleep, reduce the brightness of the display or go to the screen saver when you are using full-screen. It is strange that you have this problem with Flash.

    There are workaround solutions such as the use of an add-on or an external program that simulates the movement of your mouse, but those who really shouldn't be necessary.

    VLC, I don't know.

    Furthermore, you closed and restarted Windows because this problem first occurred? Just in case where some component shared Windows crashed.

  • How can I disable the Agent updates from HP running?

    HP pavilion D4100Y

    Windows XP SP2 or 3 (not sure)

    No error message

    No recent changes

    Problem: The program "HP updates Agent" run frequently and on no particular schedule, certainly not the one I chose.  He takes over my computer for hours and using most of the CPU, fluctuating between 13% and 87% to 1 etc.3% at 6%, etc.. The computer crashes and I can not use it for something else. On the HP updates screen, I put updates on 'NEVER', but that did not work.  The programs always run. In the Windows Task Manager window, the program is called "Agent updates from HP".

    I find nothing on this problem in the base of support.

    How can I disable the Agent updates from HP running?

    Select your Start button, in the search box type 'msconfig' then msconfig.exe under programs.

    Look under the tabs "Services" and "Boot". Uncheck update HP agent, select 'Apply' and close.

  • How can I DISABLE the module "signature" when I want TO use an older add-on?

    I the MAGNIFICENT Add on 1 - ClickWeather and now has a message on the 'signature' module Now... I DON'T want to use a product of INFERIOR quality such as suggested in the name of the add - on.

    I would use the add-on that I already have on my Firefox, 1-ClickWeather. So, how can I disable the 'signature' on an individual add-on module? It is said to "Act with caution", but it does not show Me the details of my time. I reinstalled the add-on, but it does not yet record my position.

    Yes, I KNOW it is no longer supported, but has always worked until this past Saturday. It was abandoned several years ago but was kept alive by a single poster whose comments have disappeared. I have the add-on on my computer. I continued to update the continuous Firefox updates. Now, I want to again but there's this ridiculous thing on the module "signature" and «proceed with caution...» »

    You cannot delete the warning, but in 42 Firefox extension should always work.

    See:

    I would like to disable "Save all" menu item altogether from LabVIEW, or at least get a warning popup. Is this possible?

    Hello

    I hope you do well. Unfortunately you cannot directly disable the "save all", but you can use the event structures and create dialog boxes to create warning messages during execution of the program to show warning messages to the user do not save all.

    I hope it is able to provide the direction you need.

    Nice day.

  • How can I remove the prompt 'save' when executing a batch conversion ROCK?

    Hi all!

    I need to batch convert multiple OCR-readable pdf documents. I have to be able to walk away from my computer and have Adobe Acrobat to make all OCR conversions independently.

    In order to implement this action, I did the following:

    Tools-> Wizard of Action-> create new Action

    I created an action called "Batch Conversion of rock"

    By this action, I did the following:
    Recognize text-> recognize text using OCR

    and I added this to the steps of the Action show.

    I made the default action "add a folder".

    I unchecked "questioning the user.

    Now, each document is prompting me to "Save" with the following message:

    "Do you want to save changes to * *.pdf before closing?
    The dialog box is demanding a response before moving on to the next for the conversion file.

    As I said, this procedure must operate independently and should not be dependent on a save the file"" command.
    How do I:

    (a) automatically save each file at the time of the conversion?

    (b) set up the conversion in batches and converts (and registers) a number of files on its own?

    Thanks for your thoughts and your attention to this issue.

    All the best,
    Shailagh

    Oh! I see now.

    Management of the Action-> Save & Export

    Move 'Save' in the control panel actions.

    Thank you!
