Win XP screensaver annoyance

Mar 28, 2010 13:51

My machine is starting the screensaver after 1 minute, which is very annoying, especially if I'm reading or watching something. Also, several times now the screensaver started within 1 or 2 seconds of me touching the computer (not enough time to prevent it from starting)

The Power Properties says that the screensaver will start after 15 minutes. The registry entry says 600 seconds (i.e. 10 minutes). And the reality is 1 minute.

UPDATE: I fixed this at "Display Properties > Screen Saver", obtained by right-clicking on the Desktop.
