Help with monitor going black after 2 minutes of inactivity
I have a new monitor that did not come with an installation CD and has
only very limited picture control non of which addresses the monitor going black after about 2 minutes of inactivity in certain programs. Once I move the mouse the display reappears. Is there a way in XP to control or manage the screen display to prevent this from happening or at least extend the time frame? Mary |
