• HP 15 ba-015na with Windows 10: Customizing the screen saver

  Hi, I would like to customize the screensaver of my brand new HP 15 ba-015na that came with Windows 10.

  Problem is when I go to the screen saver settings all I have is the screen savers (no more six screensavers of Win10) and the selection button is not highlighted. I tried the mwnu of customization, but there is nothing that I see that would help. OD did I miss something?

  Grateful for any help. TIA.

  You can do the following.

  Right-click on an empty area of the desktop and select Personalize.

  In the next window, select the screen lock in the left pane, then scroll and select the screen saver settings.

  In the next window, select Photos in the menu drop-down, then click on apply to save the change.

• Windows cannot start the screen saver

  I get this message instead of a screen saver... no matter which, I chose. If I go to preview, all he says is that there is "no preview available".

  It started this week. I install nothing new at the time it started, at least one week before, and I think it was actually longer than a week.
  I am running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2

  Thank you! Home at last got to this do and method 1 worked. I could have lived without the screen saver, but I prefer it. Happy to have it work again.

• Windows 7 is extremely slow to return to the screen saver mode.

  I installed upgrading Windows 7 on my computer and everything is fine.  However, when the system is idle and past in mode screensaver (with or without a password), the return of the screen saver mode are extremely slow (just a white screen).  It is sometimes quick, sometimes it comes back in 3-4 minutes, but most of the time it takes a long time.

  The system is a low end, but more than enough to manage w7.  It consist of:
  Pentium dual core (2140)
  2 gig memory
  NVIDIA 7300GT 256M

  I tried to delete the zone alarm security suite, does not solve the problem
  thought it was the HP 2610 print software, removed and still happens.
  update the bios (MSI p4m900)

  can someone figure this.  Is there something that prevents him to return to the desktop.

  Note that, I try to reboot from the blank screen by pressing the windows, right arrow, return.  But I think also, it does not address key strokes.

  I found a way to fix it! I did this:

  1. Press win + r and run msconfig. Go to tools and brand to troubleshoot the computer, and then click Start.

  2. then go to system and security and press electricityballance (not sure of the name in English because I have a Norwegian version..).

  3. restart your computer.

  4. my screen saver was not afterwards, but I gave it to display photos and now it works perfectly!

  When I checked the general tab afterwards, it did not have the checkbox to use the... start (a last..) one has been verified and the second has a blue full mark.

• How to activate the screen saver in windows 7?

  Hello!

  Impossible to activate screen saver like menu drop-down is dimmed.

  Need help! This is a very serious problem. Imagine that you watch videos from your laptop connected to HD TV via the Port of the display, the screen is HD and suddenly screen goes black because the screensaver is already activated. Then, you must get up and touch something to recover the picture on your screen. And must repeat the operation every 20 minutes!

  I have Canon set up or do anything with the settings on the screen saver as menu drop-down is dimmed.

  Hi Deyett,

  In Windows 7, the local Group Policy Editor will be available in the professional, Ultimate and Enterprise editions.

  If you have any edition of Windows above, then you can try to open the Group Policy Editor as follows:

  a. click the Start button, type gpedit.msc in the Search box and press ENTER .

  Then you can follow these steps:

  (b) in the left pane, click to expand User Configuration, model of administration, Control Panel, and customization.

  c. in the pane, click with the right button to Activate the screen saver and click Edit.

  (d) to activate the Screen Saver select not configured or enabled.
  Note: Not configured is the default setting.

  It is now the eyes of the Local Group Policy Editor:

  

• Windows 7 freezes after the awakening of the screen saver.

  Windows 7 has recently been gel after the awakening of the screen saver that works all night.  This does not happen after shorter periods, to be in screen saver mode.

  I use a (empty) delivered screensaver.  When he wakes up I can open the Control Panel, but I can't open anything else.  If I try to open a Web browser first browser does not open and I can't open the Panel configuration or any other application.  I can't even restart the computer without hitting the power button.

  This is a new Windows machine and it worked fine for several months.  It is a series of of CM5571 ASUS desktop PCs. Pentium E5400 Dual Core CPU. 6 GB of ram 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.

  In the event logs, I see errors repeated for SideBySide and volmgr.

  My advice is that you should update the BIOS and motherboard drivers:

  Have you tried updating the BIOS yet?  'freeze upwards after the awakening of the screen saver'-c' is very similar to a problem faced by Vista users with motherboards Asus 2/3 years ago:

• You can set the password to the screen saver different password that the password system on Windows 7

  I want to set the password for the screen saver to something else that the network password that I use. Is this possible in Windows 7?

  It is not possible. When the screensaver starts and then interrupted, the login screen appears. Then, of course, it cannot be a different password.

• Palm Treo Pro trouble: Windows media player passes each time the screen saver updated

  The treo Pro is an excellent application of low power consumption screensaver that displays date, time and info missed calls. However, the disappointment is that when you listen to music while in screen saver mode, windows media player ignores all the minutes when the clock on the screen saver updates / refreshes.

  Since the clock updates every minute, the player skips a beat with unerring accuracy.

  It's the solution to this problem. Please, do not respond to a 'solution' to disable the screen saver. I who have already tested and am aware of it. I don't want to disable the default screen saver.

  Agree. I discovered that letting Windows media player running on the screen prevents the screen saver from kicking in (which she does if the phone is on the screen today). The screen always shows the player running but will drive according to the configuration.

  With that, the problem is solved when I play music in a car, but it will be a pain when walking or jogging.

  So I guess the only solution is to disable the screen saver with a single operation... desire, I had an app for that!

• 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.

• Re: Satellite A200-1BQ, does not not after the screen saver

  Hi, I have a Satellite A200, 32-bit Windows 7 OS. When you use the screensaver to the PC stop responding. Have to spend because no response.

  If you have a report some problem send it please.

  Hello

  This means that Windows 7 hangs and does not answer only when the screen saver has been activated?
  Have you noticed the same problem with Win XP or Win Vista?

  If not then this behavior of the laptop could be related only to Win 7 and I think that it might be caused by the graphic card driver

  Remove the graphics driver that you have installed and test the screen saver using the common windows driver 7

  It would be interesting to know what is happening

• Satellite C660D-102 blocks when past to the screen saver

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D-102 of Windows 7 OS. Basically, if my computer is left unattended, and goes to the screen saver, it freezes and has to be restarted by holding down the power button. If I'm listening to the music, makes a loud noise when it does this until it is turned off.

  Anyone has any ideas of what could be the cause?
  Thanks, Matt

  + The message was edited: changed name of the laptop.

  Hi Matt

  To be honest, this laptop T series is unclear to me. What is the correct model name or model number?
  Are you using the original pre-installed OS?
  Have you noticed this problem since the day where we?
  Do you use the standard Windows screensaver?
  Did you install additional software that is running in the background?

  Sorry for these questions but it is not easy to give you simple answer and specifies what may be the problem.

• Why does my internet work randomly even when the screen saver is turned off?

  When I connect and start the computer to the top and all, computer speakers begin to work as if I was already on the Internet. When the screen saver went off the screen and the screen is black, you can hear the speakers go to random times, as if I was online but I'm not. Need help please, my computer looks like its haunted by video ads. This was initially the Visa Commercial card, secondly the advertising of McDonald's.

  My updates are not updated, I also tried for two weeks, I need help here too. I have now accumulated 17 updates to download, but they do not.
