Is anyone else here having problems with the screensaver not activating? In our environment we like to have our users use the sceensaver with the password on resume enabled but for some reason the screensaver will not come on....it does if we preview but not by the setting.....I have tried every desktop setting under the sun and nada...any ideas?????

Thanks
 
Have you set it to go off after a short enough length of time? Mine's set at 1 minute, and always works. Also, which screensaver are you trying to use? Could the screensaver you selected have accidentally been deleted from the Windows directory? Make sure that there's nothing that could be brushing up against a mouse... my optical mouse is so sensitive that banging on the table makes it move. Jennifer Sigman

It is set to 1 minute as well.......I am trying to use the standard Windows screensavers....nothing out of the ordinary.....thanks for your reply....it is greatly appreciated!!!!! Anyone else?

THANKS
 
Check your power management features in control panel. There may something set sop the system is not idle long enough for the screen saver to activate
