Lenghten time before screensaver comes on

IT IS BECAUSE YOUR SCREENSAVER TIME IS MAYBE ONE MINUTE SO IF YOU CHANGE IT YOU WONT FACE THIS PROBLEM IT IS JUST IN THE SCREENSAVER SETTINGS DONT WORRY. IF IT STILL DOES NOT CHANGE GO TO THE STORE AND FIX IT

Hi I am no expert but to me it sounds like you are talking about your screensaver?
If so go to your desktop - right click - Personalize/Properties - Screensaver
From there you can either turn off the screensaver or select a number of minutes before it does come on ;)
Hope this helps :)

u need to change the screensaver time or the power setting time
in Windows XP it's.....
on the desktop right click/properties/screensaver/time
or
look for Power option in that and make changes as per your need

in Control Panle look for Display and make changes as per your wish

make sure your settings are set for 15 minutes or 30 minutes. also, make sure you click APPLY when you choose your saver.

This sounds like a power save issue or a screen saver problem and they are both on the same panel I will lead you to

Right click on an EMPTY part of the desktop then click properties
Click the screensaver tab then the POWER settings.

Make sure all the boxes say NEVER then APPLY.

Its up to you if you want it to ask for a password when it comes off the screensaver (my pref is for no) then click apply then ok.

When you are back at the screensaver tab change both the screensaver to one of the other windows defaults and also check how long before it goes to screensaver and maybe up that to at least 15 minutes unless you have a plasma screen in which case no more than 5 minutes.

you may need to click apply again then OK

now sit back and wait. and whilst you do that check the manual and controls for the monitor in case it too has a built in saver and if so make any changes you need there.

Check to make sure the screensaver settings are correct. Adding RAM to a PC won't change how the screensaver works, unless you also added some software that is not letting it sit idle long enough for the screensaver to come on.

This is a common issue which usually happens if there is a Wireless Mouse or Keyboard being used with the Notebook.
To confirm this, try unplug the Wireless Mouse/Keyboard and set the Screensaver time to 1 or 2 Minutes and the Screensaver should appear.
If this happens, you need to check if the PCM and DVDLauncher services are running in the background and disable them from Services window by stopping the Services and setting the Startup Type to Manual.
Now, connect the Wireless device back to the Notebook and visit the following website to find any Updates available.

The available Updates will be listed which you need to install in the Notebook to resolve the issue with the Screensaver.
Hope this helps....

Changing to a less active screen saver

try a master reset and clear of the phone then download and install the screensaver again.

I would remove the software for your keyboard. This will hand control of the screen saver back over to windows. Some keyboards come with third party software that conflicts with windows. If you want a functional set of "extra stuff" on your keyboard, then your best bet is to try one from another manufacturer.
