Help

I am not sure how I did this but some how after changing my power settings my
system will now go to screen saver and request a password to start working on
the system again.
This will happen when I am just reading somthing and not doing and activity
on the system and what is so annoying is it only takes about 2 minutes of no
activity for this to happen

I have tried to change all the security permisions I could find but nothing
will help.

Any suggestions?

Right click on the desktop and select "Personalize", click on "screen
saver", select "Change Power settings", select "Reqire a password on wake
up", select "Don't require a password".

If you want to alter the time interval for when the screen saver starts
change that in the screen saver screen that came up earlier.

Re: Help

what operating system are you using, you can fix this problem by disabling
the screen saver. and the request password after you use it again can also
be configured to not do it anymore
