Screensaver and Standby

P

Paul

Hi everyone,

It seems that my computer won't go into standby mode when I have a
screensaver activated. If I select, "screensaver....none", then the
computer will go into standby just fine. I've never seen a screensaver
prevent a computer from standing by....is this normal for XP? Thanks.

Hi Paul,

Is this with all screensavers? Or just the 3D ones? Chances are, it's a
video driver issue.
