WL and screen saver
« on: May 28, 2007, 01:54:13 PM »
I'm using WL to download to CWOP and wunderground. I notice, however, that when WL is running, even minimized, my screen saver never comes on. This is a problem if I keep the computer running 24/7. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Laura  :D

Set the monitor to power down within your power setting in the control panel. This is the method I use and set mine for 20 minutes. Or, and I don't mean to sound like a smart ass, press the monitor power button to the OFF position. Either way will work well.  :wink:

By the way, welcome to the forum!  8)

:)  Hi, Bob:

I've tried the setting in Control Panel to power down the monitor, but it doesn't seem to work. I'll give it another try and make sure everything is set right.

Yep, I figured the last resort was to manually turn off the monitor.

Thanks for the welcome!

:roll: Okay, so Bob was right. Set the monitor to turn off after 20 minutes and it works fine. Problem solved. Thanks for the advice, Bob!

Laura,

Glad to hear that all is working as it should now. I know how you feel. It's the little things that drive you insane.  :wink:

Hi, Tim:

On CWOP it's KI6AOK. Wunderground is KCASANMA10.
