Login screensaver

By tony · 16 years ago

I have recently upgraded some PC's from 98 to XP Pro.I have set up a marquee screensaver and set power options to never power down which works fine when user is logged in to network but if PC is left on login screen, the Window XP screensaver kicks in and then PC seems to go to sleep. How can I either prevent this happening or control the timing of it?

Download TweakUI. It is part of the Windows Power Toys pack. It will allow you to copy different desktop settings from the current login to the Login screen including screensaver.
