Power Scheme Issue

[Kathy]

Although I have my power scheme set to never turn off the
system, monitor or hard disks, my monitor still goes on
standby after 20 minutes or so.
This is what I have my power scheme set to:

Always On
System Standby: Never
Turn Off Monitor: Never
Turn Off Hard Disks: Never

I have XP Pro. I am working on a Compaq Evo and have
updated the BIOS to the most current version. I have
also disabled hibernation.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.

Kathy,

You might check your screen saver settings. It might be set to come on at 20
minutes with Blank selected as the screen saver. This could produce the
results you are seeing.

Post back if this isn't the case.
