• My pc won't standby and the screen saver does not work. Any help?

  I set the screensaver to go after 1 min, but it doesn't. I can get a preview of the screen saver and the part is ok.  In power options, I put the pc into standby after 5 min, but it doesn't.  I ran a few utilities and a couple came back, 'screen saver fixed', but it still does not work. Help!

  Hello

  Functions of the screen saver and sleep depend on the computer to detect an idle state. An idle state is reached when the computer detects no activity on the system. Once reached the idle state, it must maintain a State of rest for the period that you define in the element.

  If you have any device connected to the system that periodically checks for a specific action, this device can cause the system to achieve or maintain an idle state.

  Some devices, such as a device of VOIP phone that checks for incoming phone calls is an example. If you have a MagicJack or any other similar device, try to remove them and check if this solves the problem.

  Another culprit is an e-mail or instant messaging program that periodically checks for new messages.

• Why the screen saver does not work in the two screens?

  I have a monitor connected to my laptop using the VGA connector.
  Laptop LCD is set as the primary display and the additional monitor is defined as the extended desktop. When the screen saver appears, it shows on the main screen. How can I make it work on both? (without setting the external display as a clone of the hand).
  The OS is Vista Home Premium

  Thanks for any help!

  In dual screen extended mode, Win7 screen saver stops working after unpluging external monitor

  I have problems of this kind.

  I have listed what I've done to illustrate how to reproduce this.

  My OS is win7 32 bit.

  The replication steps are

  1. start on OS with integrated display (it is the system of n. b.)

  2. attach the HDMI (external monitor).

  3. turn on the extended mode and HDMI monitor as the primary device.

  4. set the screen saver 3D to be active and preview.

  Screensaver 3D drawing now works on the main screen.

  the secondary monitor (built-in monitor) working with black screen.

  5. hot unplug a HDMI monitor.

  6. the display of the 3D screen saver is changed back to the built-in screen.

  7. BUT the drawing of 3D on the built-in screen screensaver is STOPPED (= NOT updated).

  8 move the mouse, built-in monitor escapes from the idle screen status (operating system is still alive)

  Is this an OS behave as expected?

• My screen saver does not work all the time, usually this seems to happen once the aircraft stopped in the energy saving mode.

  Original title: my screensaver does not work all the time

  My screen saver does not work all the time.  First time I have turn on computer, it works OK.  Later in the day, this isn't.  Usually, this seems to happen once the aircraft stopped in the energy saving mode.  After the reactivation of the computer (do not), the screen saver does not work when it should. How to run all the time?  I am running Kapersky Internet Security 2011.  This would be closed by the screen saver?

  Hi garybuyit,

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft answers Forums.

  Just so I'm clear, updated you the graphics cards in Device Manager? You have access to a Windows XP installation disc. If so, follow the steps in this document to make a scan of the SFC. This analysis will attempt to repair or replace any missing or corrupted system files.

• Portege M400: screen saver does not work

  Hi all

  like many of you, I think, I need the screen saver protected by start-up automatically when I let my M400 unattended for some time.
  Everything works fine if the bluetooth is introduced to the wide. Otherwise... the screen saver does not start automatically.

  Site Microsoft learns something about the problems related to (Microsoft mouse) wireless devices that do not allow the screen saver appears.
  The proposed solution is to kill a process called PCMsomething, or download an update windows named KBsomething and install it.

  I actually a bluetooth wireless (non-Microsoft) combined with my PC mouse, but no PCMsomething process is executed and, although my mouse is turned off, the screen saver organizers can't work until I turned off the bluetooth of the M400 too. In addition, windows update does not suggest a KBsomething patch to install (maybe because my mouse is not a Microsoft one?).

  Any idea to solve my problem?
  Thanks in advance.

• My screen saver does not work and it's turnd.

  That check for screen saver does not

  Hi k4trm,

  1. what happens when you set a screen saver? What screensaver you have defined on the computer?

  2. you receive an error message?

  3. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  Method 1

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the screen saver does not to work.

  I suggest that you perform a clean boot and check.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

  Method 2

  If the previous step fails then I would suggest that you update the driver for graphics card on the computer visiting the site of graphics card manufacturer.

  I select a screen saver, set the time, apply and nothing.  This has happened before and corrected himself.  Maybe one setting in another program? It's on a laptop.

  Hello jerrylumpe

  1. If you use an old mouse, try to clean it.

  2. you can have a running process in the background that keeps XP thinking that he is busy and so the screen standby does not start.
  Go to msconfig and uncheck everything you don't need, then see if the screensaver will kick in.

  Start/run and type
  Msconfig
  Ok

  Startup tab
  Keep the page open then click on the link below. It will tell you what are all the entries and see if you can disable them or not

  http://www.SysInfo.org/STARTUPINFO.html

  Read the key at the foot of the page, then click on "Here" at the top. Use the search box to check all your entries

  Try this too
  http://www.kellys-Korner-XP.com/xp_tweaks.htm

  Line 51 left side. Click on "toggle".

  It could be that something is resetting the timer. For example, it does take much vibration to move the mouse a little, and which will reset the timer to zero. Something like that would be possible? Or a pet that walks on the keyboard?

• Screen saver does not react when I "wiggle" the mouse or press "Esc"; 'Enter', etc.

  I had the same screen saver running for centuries (it goes right through my photos), but in the last few weeks, I am unable to find the screen to 'wake up' 'wiggle' of the mouse or press "Esc"; 'Enter' etc etc.  Its very frustrating because I have to press several keys at random and then wait about 5 minutes for the screen saver turns off.  I'm still on Windows 7 and it is up to date.

  No idea how to get the screensaver to respond normally again?
