It seems that my use of webshots for wallpaper and screensaver keeps my PC active enough so that it won't go into standby or hibernate mode. Is there something I can do to fix this? I sure like the webshots' wallpaper calendar.

reduce the frequency of webshots activity ti be longer than the settings for hibernation.

if webshots is set to refresh in 10 minutes and hibernation is set to 20 then it won't trigger the hibernation.
( I've set this up on other's systems and by setting webshots to an hour thier systems still go into standby and hibernation no problem. )
