RE: screensaver not working

Problem was the screensaver wouldn't auto start. Also It wouldn't stay asleep

either.

I have a PS/2 connected mouse and keyboard so it wasn't the HID non-user

input filter that was needed.

What was happening was the network adapter kept waking up the computer and

resetting the screensaver timer.

To Fix:

1. Click "Start/Control Panel/System/Device Manager

2. Under "Network Adapters" is your particular "Ethernet NIC"

Right-click and choose "Properties"

3. Click "Power Management" tab

4. Un-Check "Allow this device to wake computer"

5. Click "OK"

Fixed.

Enjoy.....
