Why my screensaver turns on after only a minute of inactivity?

regardless of what I do, as soon as I touch any key for only a minute my computer screen goes to screen saver, and then when I click on my lock screen is there wanting a password.  Just what I was looking at is always there, but why my computer think it takes 'time out '?

Hello

Please try

Make a right click Windows start and select power options

Click Settings Change Plan

You can change to something like clisk then save changes

Moreover, why you need Saver screen, this WILL kill your screen faster. Put it on sleep.

Kind regards.

  • Why the screensaver stop working after a few minutes and then go to the black screen permanently?

    I use Vista Home Premium with Explorer 8. My screensaver always works for about 5 minutes and then stops and goes to a black screen. Still black screen and my screen saver active ever again until I have move my cursor to display the page I was on. The screen saver does not available parameters except to set the number of minutes, I want to start. I ran antivirus, anti-spyware-malware etc the gamet, but anything is wrong with the screen saver. I am blocked and never had this problem before. Anyone know what is happening, what is the cause and how to fix this?

    If you changed your diet plan or changed some settings for your course, it can happen.

    (1) go in the bottom right of your screen and click on the battery icon and click more power options (assuming that you have a laptop. If you don't go to the control panel (Classic view) and go into power options)

    (2) on your package (indicated by a blue dot next to it), click on change plan settings and navigate screen however turn it off for a long time, you want it to be before he turns off the screen.

    I do not recommend messing around with drivers, because when I did, it messed up my screen and ended up back where I was before she has nothing (sorry James). of couse I messed up a little and the only real problem was the catylist control center has disappeared, and when I tried to fix this, I came across problems (it looked like a safe mode without the mode without failure of words on the corners)

  • Photoshop CS6: Why is rendered 3D crashing after only a minute or two to make...?

    I don't get an error or anything, but the blue grid following the rendered area eventually came to a stop, and Photoshop is frozen. I use the Task Manager to stop it.

    Video card: ATI Radeon HD 5800 series

    Operating system: Windows 7 (64-bit)

    RAM: 6 GB

    A few days ago I used the catalyst to install all the latest drivers. I did when I got CS5. I tried to do some 3D with CS5, but this version was not able to detect my GPU, so I myself CS6. I did things 3D for the last days of couple without problem a lot. I mean, the rendering was slow, but never stopped...

    I thought maybe it was the size of my document, so I have reduced the size and got a little further the rendering process, but ends up always by crashed.

    Any suggestions? Are there settings that I could use to optimize rendering?

    I think it's time to hunt in the document for the problem. Do the following simplifications to the document of 500 x 500 pixels.

    In environment, disable the IBL and white ambient value. Set ground reflections and shadows on the ground at 0%.

    In scene, select "Remove hidden backfaces" (which hides the faces back polygons rather than "withdrawal" something which is already hidden) because you are made outside the opaque solids, so there is no point in having the rendering engine to examine the inside of objects.

    Turn off all the lights.

    Apply the gray material called 'No. Texture' to all objects and making things no shadows and not receive shadows.

    Which must be made the same for the following screenshot which was of 6 passes in about 3.5 minutes with my puny bicoeur processor. 4 first passes took about 1 second each, 5 pass lasted about 30 seconds, 6 col took about 3 minutes. A revived Photoshop and repeated with the same time.

    Let your return for at least 10 minutes, though, to check if it freezes.

    Edit: provided details of the time taken by each pass of the converter.

  • LCD screen turns off after a few minutes

    My screen turns off after a few minutes, even if the parameters to be able to say that he should turn off after 60 minutes of no activity.  Before this date should activate the screensaver after 10 minutes of no activity.  But in my case the active screensaver ever and my right monitor fades to black.  What can I do to fix this?  Is there a registry setting that has changed I don't know?

    I checked power options, the first thing, and then I checked the (NVIDIA) graphics card Control Panel to see if there is a setting for it.  The figures that I had in my previous post came from my power options, but I don't know how standard power who do not have the numbers that it would affect the schedule/performance options.  I went to advanced settings.  But I also rebooted my computer which solved the problem, in my opinion.  I'll have to sit and wait to be sure, but I'll get back to you on that once I have test.

  • Satellite A30 turns off after a few minutes (set temp)

    Anyone know if there is a temp for the A30 laptop parameter. My laptop turns off after a few minutes or alternative suggestions

    Thank you

    Hi Waseem,

    Dust accumulation is not in the fans themselves, but in the space between the fans and the CPU radiator, where it is trapped by the matrix of cooling.

    The technique of using a hose of vacuum cleaner against the fan grids is designed to suck the dust outside in front of the fans without having to dismantle the radiator.

    Obviously, you have just as much suction as possible in order to remove any dust, it is therefore important to isolate grids of aspiration air with a cloth.

  • Qosmio PX30t all-in-one: black screen after a few minutes of inactivity

    I just bought a new all in one Px30t and I have 2 problems with it causing me to nuts.

    I have a mouse battery that dies after 24 hours and the screen goes black after a few minutes of inactivity.
    I changed the settings of the display in standby, the Power Options etc everything I can think of it doesn't seem to make a difference.

    Can also someone point me in the direction of a manual online for the model.

    > The screen goes black after a few minutes of inactivity.
    Can bring back you to life somehow, or you need to restart your Qosmio?

    Usually the manual s user document is saved on the HARD drive (preinstalled original machine). Can find you it?
    Did you check support page to Toshiba for manuals online (Toshiba page for the country of purchase)?

  • New Sansa Clip + turns off after a few minutes of play audiobook...

    Hello

    I was wondering if someone could help me.  Have been enjoying my new Sansa Clip + for the past two weeks.  Just been using the function of radio - finally understood how to load an audio cd on the drive.  The drive is recognized on my computer, and audio tracks are in the player very well.  When I start the audio book, the player will stop after about three minutes of play.  I need to do a soft reset before it turns on again.  This happens whenever I try to read the audio book.  I have not loaded all of the songs on the player at the moment and I was wondering if this problem was something I got wrong, or if I was just a faulty drive.  This is my first mp3 player, so I'm new to this. :-)  The radio and the pre-loaded songs work fine.  I contacted the customer service, but have had no response.  Thought I would try the forum before you give them a call.

    I hope someone can help,

    El

    You must use a ripping software and extract the mp3 or wma files. The Clip + probably does not even support .wav files.

  • The display turns off after a few minutes and shows 'No Signal'

    Hey guys, I was faced with a weird problem recently. My desktop monitor turns off by itself after a few minutes, but the works of CPU, I can hear the fan running and see the lights blink. One thing I noticed, is that when the screen turns off, the light Orange on the processor rest on which flashes normally just. My PC works normally on the mode without failure, but worse, safe mode, but I can't work on my software CorelDRAW. This may be the problem of SMPS? because recently, my entries of mouse and keyboard did not work due to which I got a USB keyboard and a mouse. I recently installed Windows 7 64 bit, but I think that shouldn't cause the problem since I have worked with Windows 64-bit before on the same machine.

    PC configuration-

    Intel Core 2 Duo 4500 @ 2.20 Ghz processor
    ASUS P5QPL-AM motherboard
    3 GB RAM
    No (not sure, maybe integrated) graphics card
    1 TB harddrive

    PS - I couldn't find an exact category for my problem.

    Hey Archer
    Currently, I formatted my Windows 7 and installed Windows 8 and am these problems persist. I have not upgraded but formatted my C drive and installed a fresh new copy of windows 8... so I thnk it may be a problem of the SMP. Can he?

    Hi sunny

    It can or mentioned being SMPS... the reason is... you have already said that the computer or the monitor works fine in safe mode! But since his past even when you install Windows 8,
    To make troubleshooting a
    1. go to the Bios and reset all default by selecting the optimum setting in the bios... Given that your motherboard has got characteristic overclocking and selection of the IGD... let him get by default...  Start the computer and check if the monitor turns off always.
    2. If step 1 does not solve your problem... then go to the power option in the control panel and select your power setting of the high-performance system where you can set your monitor to never go to sleep.  See what's happening... If the monitor still going to sleep even after this setting... then you have a problem with drivers or the motherboard... try updating the drivers and see if that helps.
    3. If the update of drivers did not help... so the next option is to review your material... try to get a replacement screen and see if this could solve this problem... A things you can deduct that if this also fails, then the obvious reason is that your monitor is ok... and problem must be the motherboard.
    4. Firstly check the display port... does it feel loose?
    a. do you have this port pins come out?
    b. your motherboard has two power connections (EATXPWR 24-pin and a 4-pin ATX 12V... are both connected?
    c. your SMP should be at least 400W according to recommendations from the manufacturer to you. Check this box...
    d. then ofcourcse obviously... Reinstall the Rams and other external devices.
    Follow these steps and let me know your comments for each
  • Why my new PSE12 crash after about 1 minute?

    I used PSE8 for several years successfully on a desktop computer running Windows XP. Always reliable, if a little slow backup etc with my huge catalog (75K image).

    My new office works now Win7 64 bit. It is a high-performance machine. I bought PSE12 and converted my old PSE8 catalog. For a while, PSE12 worked OK, although it took a few days to generate all the thumbnails for my large catalog.

    Suddenly, it began to break up after about 1 minute - even if I do nothing. I uninstalled the old PSE8 - still the same problem. I uninstalled / reinstalled PSE12 - still the same.

    Feeling a little desperate because I dare not my backup catalog, or even add new images, the software will inevitably crash half way through. And I'm going on vacation soon, with the camera!

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    You said that it used to work OK so I think that the material should not be the problem.

    Is the user you connect on your PC an administrator?

    Try another test to see if it's the catalog or not.

    Start the Organizer while holding the SHIFT key before you enter the Catalog Manager.

    Click the new button (top-right) and enter a new name (TestCat or something) and click on the OK button.

    This should create a new, empty catalog. You can see if that says for more than a minute. You could try to import some images, but I suggest that you do not have something with them.

    Current rest of performance then we know it is the catalogue - otherwise, if the application.

  • HP Pavilion HPE h9 - 1120-t Phoenix - PC suddenly starts turning Off after a few Minutes of use

    Posted this on the Forum for questions of another office before I reduced the problem.  No one answered:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/other-desktop-PC-questions/HP-Pavilion-HPE-H9-1120t-Phoenix-PC-suddenly...

    Announcing this computer from July 2012 and not even a hiccup.  4 days, the computer suddenly began turn power off. It doesn't stop, it turns off, the plug was pulled. When I reboot I get the message of abnormal termination of Windows.   There is no warning at all.  No message as the computer is overheating.  He comes to occur when the computer is idle without programs will open.

    When it stops, the power supply unit light goes out for a minute then comes back on the 'green' and the computer can be restarted.

    I unplugged the power cord and relugged and it seems fine.

    The computer is aware of the updates of Windows and can be stopped normally.

    I removed the cover and clean the dust and confirmed all fans are running properly.  I left the lid off the coast, and the computer stops again.

    I must add that when the computer is started 'cold' it runs about 15 minutes.  If you restart after it just closed, you have maybe 3-5 minutes of use.

    Why did you think it was overheating.

    Any ideas?  Thank you.

  • Wireless connection lost after only five minutes

    Hello

    New on site, but you have a very annoying problem, here go us
    I just got a 2nd hand laptop Toshiba Satellite S1800-402 and has decided to add this to my setup wireless at home (big mistake), anyway I have a router wireless 802. 11 b of mentor and my main pc connected to the router and another pc which has a mentor 802 wireless pci card. 11B. Pcmcia card from the laptop is a mentor 802.11 g card is compatiable back, so I was told by bloke in-store pc.

    Just the problem I have is the pc successfully connect to internet the laptop will be fine OK, but 99% of the time I would say 5 minutes max before losing the connection and only way to get the rear connection is either reboot the laptop, or remove the pcmcia card and hope that it detects the wireless again. the wireless network is not secure on it and checked on the router page and there is no filtering or configure... I have Digital wireless home phones that I unplugged and get always the same problem.

    Would be - what this model has received a wireless card already and there is a conflict.

    It becomes a default really annoying that I head in fact.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated no matter what other requried info I will try to help

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    As much as I know this model doesn't have a WiFi card and this kind of conflict is not possible. In my opinion connection breaks are caused by software settings or false. If you make a permanent download happens the same thing?

    Try to check the power consumption of your network card WIRELESS and also Idle timeout option in the router.
