System locking after screen saver activation

Postby odlweb » Thu Feb 10, 2005 10:57 pm

I have created several screen savers using flash and by manually inserting images (no flash). The problem arises when the screen saver is displayed. All goes well until the monitor goes into power save mode. Sometimes when moving mouse etc to wake up nothing happens. Machine is frozen. Other times it will wake but mouse pointer remains frozen for a while. The effect seems worse the longer it is left.

I thought it might have been the machine the screen saver was installed to but I also tried it on other machines with same results.

Screen Saver Factory pro has been re-installed but I still get the same results with screen savers created.

Machines this has been tried on:
Desktop 98 Celeron 1.0 w/512RAM 1770 Mitsubishi Monitor
Desktop 98SE Celeron 1.7 w/512RAM 1770 Mitsubishi Monitor
Laptop XP Home Celeron 2.4 w/512RAM LCD Display

Any ideas appreciated.
Regards
David

Same issue

When the system goes into powersave mode the computer is very slow to recover and is pretty unusable. As noted above this seems to get worse the longer the timeframe. Do we have an ETA for a fix for this yet. It's really a show stopper for a project I've been working on.

Thanks,
Dustin
