Selecting a screen saver
You can use a screen saver to keep others from viewing your screen while you
are away from your computer. Windows supplies a variety of screen savers that
you can choose from, and many more are available from the Internet and as
commercial products.
Caution
If you are using a monitor (not a
flat-panel display), an image may get
burned in on your monitor screen if you
leave your computer on for long periods
of time without using it. You should use a
screen saver which constantly changes
its image to avoid this damage. Flat
panel displays cannot be damaged with
image burn-in.
To select a screen saver:
1 Click Start, then click Control Panel. The Control Panel window opens. If
your Control Panel is in Category View, click Appearance and Themes.
2 Click/Double-click the Display icon. The Display Properties dialog box
opens.
3 Click the Screen Saver tab.
4 Click the arrow button to open the Screen Saver list, then click the screen
saver you want. Windows previews the screen saver.
■ If you want to customize the screen saver, click Settings, then make
your changes. If the Settings button is not available, you cannot
customize the screen saver you selected.
■ If you want to display the Welcome (Login) screen whenever you
exit the screen saver, click the On resume, display Welcome
screen check box.
■ If you want to change the time before the screen saver is activated,
click the up or down arrows next to the Wait box.
5 Click OK.
