    monitor goes to sleep every 10 secs without mouse move


    Hi all you busy people here,i have a very annoying problem with mt win 7 ultimate 64,recently i was trying to get a screen saver to work and read somewhere on google about changing a value in the registry which i stupidly done and now if i dont move the mouse or type the screen loses the signal from the pc.I hope someone kind here can help me as i dont have a clue what i changed :-(
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hello, :)

    Do you remember what value you changed?

    It sounds like you may have change how long to turn off the display after being idle.

    Display - Turn Off in Windows

    If no to both the above, then you could do a system restore using a restore point dated before you made the change to undo it.
