    Original title: need more time

    My active pages are going and I get my screensaver, then I have to click back in my browser. I looked at my aid centres, nothing. I feel stupid like all out them, but can someone help me? God bless you.

    If mean you your screen saver "comes" too early, right-click on an empty area of your desktop, choose Properties, the screensaver tab and check your adjustments there.

    Click OK to save the settings and close the dialog box.

  • Screen saver comes on is no longer

    I'm starting this new, as the previous question is called resolved even if for some people including myself it was not resolved. With each new version from 8 (windows xp) my screen saver comes on. I tried to open firefox in safe mode to see if that would help and it did not. I just discovered today, however, that if I go private browsing than the screen saver turns on. If something has run this private browsing stops, but safe mode does not work. Any ideas out there?

    It's very strange, but even if I changed nothing, after months of no screensaver, he's back! So I guess we'll call it resolved even thought nothing was actually resolved.

    McAfee is one of the worst choice of protection that you could make and it is not enough to prove that your computer is free of viruses/malware. Go through the links I gave you. Regarding the image clearer, try to reinstall your video drivers.

    Never get the drivers from Windows Update. Bring:

    1. site of the device mftr. ; OR
    2. site of the card mother mftr. If the material is on board; OR
    3. website of the OEM manufacturer for your specific machine if you have a PC OEM (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

    Read the installation instructions on the Web site where you get the drivers.

    To find out what hardware is in your computer:

    1. read all documentation that you got when you purchased the computer.
    2. If the computer is OEM, access the site Web of the OEM for your specific model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway)
    3. download, install and run a program of inventory of the free system like Belarc Advisor or System Information for Windows.

  • Sleep and power settings screen saver

    What 'time settings' should I use for computer 'screen saver' and 'sleep' when you use a "PASSWORD" to login?

    I don't want my current settings for me to enter my hours additional p.w. cause my screensaver lights up or my screen will Dim.  I noticed there's a ""EVER " adjustment." What would it be for?

    Please keep the simple answer, that I'm not a technology person.

    Thank you

    If you do not want will ask you for your password after the screen saver comes on or after having put your Mac to sleep, go to System-> Security & privacy-> general Preferencesand uncheck the box 'ask password... '. ». It's the best way to do what you want.

    In addition, note that you can also define a period of time, so you will ask for your password after this time and not before. To change this setting, you have a multiple choice option that I mentioned earlier.

  • Palm Pre calendar, screen saver and Conference questions

    Hello

    I am a Palm Pre (Sprint) 1.4 and the Palm Pre Plus (verizon) 1.4 user.  I use the EAS option to connect to my company groupware system.  I have two problems, I need help:

    1. on the Sprint and Verizon, location of the grille section seems to offer very limited space.  Minimum Adequetly so that when I'm on the road and I am trying to get an address or con-calls, he doesn't seem to have enough space to support location data.  In addition, there seems to be no option to scroll left or right to see the data.

    2. on the phone from Verizon, when the screen saver comes in and the screen turns off, the only option is to press the power button on the top right of the phone.  However, when the phone is flipped open, it's a physical impossibility.  I then have to return the phone closed and then press the button.  It's a question on Sprint phones and through a software upgrade they have enabled the option to press the middle button a screen saver option Michael.  The same option on the Verizon phone is necessary.

    3. I don't know if it is a function or a lack of, of the CDMA network, but it would be nice to a conference call of the United Nations and switch between private calls.

    All-in-all, I'm very happy with my phones and think that WebOS is more operationally effective phone OS on the market.

    Thank you

    1st edition. Just, I typed a few characters in my location section and had more than 100 characters without running out of space. Never came to fruition. To access you type on a line of text, hold down the option key down, and move your finger to the up, down, left, right anywhere on the screen. It will be your cursor from that direction.

    2. I have sprint, so maybe verizon is different. But by pressing any key on the keyboard while his opening turns my screen turn it back on.

    3. no idea on it.

    Re: Settings Vista photo screensaver
    Don't know. The settings for the screen saver are located under this key:

    "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Photo.
    Gallery\slide show\Screensaver.

    but the values of 'Speed' seem to be 0, 1 or 2 (slow, medium, fast),
    they are not in a few seconds.

    If your computer is restarted when the BSOD appears, then you must change the by default for what to do in case of system error. It is easy to do, but takes a lot of mouse clicks to get there:

    Start | Control Panel | System | Advanced system settings (need for credentials for the administrator to spend here |) Advanced | Startup and recovery / settings.

    On this screen, uncheck the box under system failure that says automatically restart. The next time the BSOD appears, your computer will not do anything else until you press the reset button, so you'll have all the time you need to read and copy the error codes. Paste here, verbatim, and someone should be able to point in the right direction.

    In the control panel choose reports on problems and Solutions (problem of type in the START search box), go to historical problem, right-click your error and choose check for the Solution. You can also examine the details.

  • Disable the screen saver to logon in XP Home

    I'm deploying many gifts machines running XP Home to

    an elementary school, & it's better for them if the screen saver is
    people with disabilities and no password required to start up.  (Please - we)
    don't need no help to this decision).
    I need a register or install the solution based on the script - it is not possible
    go back & many accounts of click-click-click on many machines.
    I watched a lot of scripts and scenarios of regedit posted
    the years, & no work.    These involve generally change different
    roots versions of control panel\desktop ScreenSaveActive key 0.
    They do not work.  Accounts get up always prepare you with ScreenSaveActive 1.
    I edited default user\ntuser.dat for ScreenSaveActive 0.
    Does not help.
    Can I change the timeout to many registry setting.
    in default user\ntuser.dat - out of work.  I put it in 10 years,
    I had 9999 minutes.   It is about 7 days, not too bad.  Power
    management should take over there.  Yet, I would have preferred something
    better than this kind of hack and there are applications that could
    be better with a kiosk - like approach so that they are always on.
    Is it possible known and modern management script of screensaver in XP Home?
    How is this screensaveactive = 1 parameter is re-applied, anyway?
    It is also not possible to delete SCREENSAVE. EXE - it always returns again

    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.
