Windows Standby disabled?

[JeffC]

I'm evaluating your Screensaver tool, and notice that running a screensaver created with your program seems to prevent Windows XP going into standby mode. If I select another saver, standby mode is entered. Is this right?

I can not confirm this, standby should work just fine. And it works on all of our test PCs.

I seem to have a problem with my power options in windows xp home, I have to reset my power options after I install a screen saver I have made with screensaver factory 4 enterprise, I uninstall the screensaver and then have too reset my power options to get them to work ????

I believe this is something more complex and it can not be caused just by installing a screensaver, because it does not change any of your system settings. What could be happening is your windows itself could be having some system trouble which somehow relates to screensavers and power options.
