Just recently installed Windows 7 and I am unable to set a screensaver. When I go to personalize -> Screensaver the dropdown to select a screensaver is greyed out and I am unable to set one.
I also have Win 7 installed on my laptop and do not have this issue. Has anyone run into any video...

Hi! everything is working fine in 7 with on an Amilo xa 1526 laptop.
But i dont know why the logon screen is appearing every minute if i stop to type or to move the mouse.
It seems like if it were some kind of screensaver, but is not, is sth else.
It is really annoying when you are reading...
Hello,
I am having this very annoying problem where the screensaver won't turn on, the screen doesn't turn off after a predetermined amount of time because I think there is something wrong with the cursor or mouse. I know this because whenever I click "preview" for the screensaver it would...
Hi there.
I seem to be having a problem with my monitor going into standby after say 10 to 15 mins? (not sure to be honest)
I have made sure this is NOT selected in my Power or Screensaver settings.
I use my own created Power Profile with this always on.

I recently installed the "System 47" Star Trek screensaver. However, after it has run its course and the monitor shuts off, when I go back to get back on, everything on the taskbar except the Windows button has disappeared. Doesn't appear as though there's any obvious way to get it to re-appear...

Hey all!
So I seem to be having a rather weird problem. My computer's screensaver will engage, the monitor will auto-sleep, but when the computer goes to sleep it immediatly wakes up. It goes to sleep for about 3 seconds, then wakes up. I have upgraded all of my device drivers (esp. Input...
So I have a just setup a multi monitor display, works all good. But I was interested to find out how you set up the second monitor to start a screensaver, or go to sleep, or if this is even possible, while having the primary monitor still active. Right so if Im playing a game say, the secound...
Is there a setting for Windows Media Center to prevent it from powering off the computer after some inactivity? I was listening to an album of MP3s, and sometime after it finished, my ThinkPad T42 powered off. I have the settings in "Power Options" set to go to sleep after inactivity, not...
I found that performance has dropped a bit since switching from Vista (32 bit) to 7 (32 bit). Vista has always run smoothly for me but since trying out Windows 7 I've noticed lag in several areas such as:

- Highlight box (when holding button down on desktop and dragging...

..wondering if it's a bug or if the power settings for this laptop need tweaking to get the screensaver to work.
I have it set at "high performance" because it's most often plugged in.
Screensaver is set to come on at 21 minutes of no use. "Standby" and all that is set to "never."
After ScreenSaver, How do I bypass "Switch User" screen to login as another in Vista?
Hi All,
Whenever someone in my family walks away from using the computer with Windows Vista, after the Screen Saver, I'm always taken to a screen that allows only the last user to log back in, but when...
I bought a cheap 22" AOC LCD monitor to replace my polyview 19" LCD and was surprised to find my screensaver does not activate or the PC go into sleep/stand-by mode as before..

Anyone had this problem when changing a LCD monitor...
Hi guys, new poster here!
I've posted on other forums but they have people who aren't really experts so now i'm here to see if there are some experts here! I have a problem enabling aeroglass on Vista 5365.. It's the 32-bit one.
