When watching web programs on realplayer the screen goes blank after a few minutes. I would like to switch off the screen blanking temporarily until after I've finished watching the program. Does anyone know of a simple way to turn it on and off?
Thanks

hi
you can try this.....
Right click on your Desktop
then select .... Configure Desktop
then select .... Screen Saver
uncheck ... the start automatically ( box )
or .... increase the default time from 4 min
to something longer
hope this is of some use

Thanks but I'm talking about screen blanking as opposed to the screen saver. I have cancelled the screen saver but screen blanking still occurs. This is okay during normal use but to have to touch the mouse or keyboard every few minutes gets a bit tedious after a while.

hi
So have you got power control set ??
same path as above but select the last option ... display
then the third option .... power control
this will cause your monitor to blank at a specified time

Thanks Malcolm That's what I was looking for. I don't know how I missed it before. Hopefully, it will work. Regards Eddie
