  • For Windows XP, how to get rid of "this screen saver has no option that you can set!

    I want to change the screen saver, but whenever I click the setting button, I received the message: «this screen saver has no options that you can set»

    Although several screensavers just do one thing, some of them can be customized.  For example, '3D text' screen saver allows you to choose the text, the text color, size, etc.

    For most screen savers, just choose one from the drop-down list and then click 'OK' - not the button "settings".

  • Windows 7 screen saver has suddenly stopped working

    Recently, the screen saver on my laptop (Sony Vaio Z model VPCZ119GX with 6 GB of ram and a core i7 processor) has stopped working.  He has always worked in the past, but suddenly (as of mid-June 2010) stopped it.  None of the Windows 7 default screensavers work (for example to mystify, ribbons, etc.), nor fact Windows live Gallery screen saver.

    I am running Windows 7 Professional x 64.  If I go to preview, I can see the screen saver, but it does not start after a period of inactivity.  I reduced the timeout to 1 minute and I tried both require a password and no password and neither work.  I do not use a wireless mouse (I have read other posts that a mouse without a wire could cause this problem) and I have fixed via the USB port.  I went in the Manager of peripheral and done so that devices that have power management options have been disabled.  I checked my task manager and I don't notice anything out of the norm running in background.

    Here's the interesting part.  If I connect to the hidden administrator account screen saver works perfectly.  If I create a new user account screen saver still does not work.  Something prevents the screen saver works in the created user accounts, but works perfectly under the administrator account.  What could cause this problem?  How to solve this problem?

    Another interesting information.  The same problem exists on a friends Lenovo T400s under Windows 7 Ultimate.  His screen saver has worked a few days ago (week of June 21) but suddenly stopped as well.  A windows update may have caused this problem?

    Finally, I have not tested this, but it seems that hibernate/sleep has also stopped working.  Unfortunately, I sleep/hibernation activate after 4 or 5 hours and I can't say for sure 100% that I let the computer idle for this period of time, but I could have sworn that I have.

    I think screensaver and put into hibernation / sleep are all affected by the activities of intelligence and something is causing the machine to think that this is not idle.  But under the Admin account, it works very well.  I spent hours trying to understand this point, but without success.  I have even restored to the point of thinking older restoration that something could happen, but it does not solve the problem either.

    Help, please!

    briboynyc and dougfulcher

    I am so happy that I found this forum.  About 6 weeks ago, I lost my screen saver on our computer brand new with windows 7.  I was on the phone with HP in India twice and finally they decided to take back me to the factory restore thinking that it was because of our backup files in windows XP.  Repeat all. I backed up all my files, and then we started again from the beginning.  It's the same thing.  We packed up the computer and returned to the store, a new computer and started all over for the third time.  Last night is the same thing.  I was really frustrated and thought maybe it was a little problem with windows 7 so decided to get on the microsoft Web site to see if I could communicate with someone from Microsoft.  That's when I discovered this forum and started reading everything.  When I read the answer of dougfulcher, he mentioned magic jack running in the background.  We disconnected magic jack and that solved the problem immediately.  I am really grateful and only wish I had discovered it before that I lived all this computer return and restoration.  Everything seems to work very well.  I hope this helps someone else.

    Double check with a magnifying glass and a good lighting that nothing has been slain. Then, try insertion and withdrawal of your headphones a couple of times. If this does not work, it may be while the shooting went wrong. In this case, make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your local Apple store for the assessment.

    The ability to rotate the screen image is a characteristic of your video
    card, to help work with instructors who turn to the portrait
    orientation. Almost certainly you accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and
    an arrow key.

    Rotate using these keys.
