Hi,
If u r watching movie in windows media player then click Tools-
>option. in Player tab under player setting uncheck the Allow screen
saver during playback.Then go to Desktop and right click select
properties,Under screen saver tab uncheck onresume,password protected
checkbox.Then click power button,in the next window select advance tab
and uncheck the prompt for

Please stop using Text Messaging shorthand. It does not take you much more time to type out the
full word.
Text messaging shorthand is just plain poor presentation.
