serial port disabled when screen saver comes on

Our timecard system uses a serial port to access the time clocks. When the
screen saver comes on the serial port no longer opperates and time
information is no longer gathered. Is there a setting that I can change to
allow serial port access when the screen saver is on?

Thank you,

Frank

I do not have any power management tabs for my serial device in device
manager. Is there a spot in the registry where I can set the power state
settings for the device.

Thank you,

Is the PC going to low power or just the SS coming on? Does
communication with time clock restore with the PC waking up? Do you
have the latest motherboard drivers installed?
