Screen-Saver Not Working

Post by Eaton »

Well, this has been broken for a while, but I haven't took an action until now. I have my screen-saver to go off in five minutes. I wait five minutes. It never comes on. I set it to one minute and try a different screen-saver. Nothing. It used to work about a month ago, but something must be wrong... Any tips on how I can fix this?

Why do you use a screen saver? They take the exact amount of energy and kill your downloads.

What's wrong with having a screen-saver to look at? :? I don't even download that much. I just want to fix it.

It is better to just turn off your screen.

if you really want to look at pretty, you could go to the display properties->Screen Saver-> and preview. if it is that important.
