1) Message boards : Questions and problems : Screen saver lock up (Message 18236)

Post:
I have a reoccurring problem with the screen saver locking up my main monitor when I come back to the computer from time away from it, the power saver kicks in and turns my monitors off, when I return and give the trackball a little jiggle, The #1 monitor is stuck with which ever graphic screen saver my Bionic is running. The only thing I can do is power down the computer itself and re-start it.

Has this problem been addressed before or does anyone have a clue how to prevent this?

I am using a ATI graphics card and XP


Dual monitors?
Have you read this post?

Read it... thanks for the reply but this post is no help. The screen saver will not disengage when I come back and "awake" my computer...
