Screensaver / PowerSave Disrupted By App - How To Track Which One
Feb 9, 2012
Win7's LCD power save mode, after a few minutes, gets constantly disrupted by an application. As this happens with detached mouse and keyboard, I think a process might be the culprit. But how can I know, analyse which one? Are there "usual suspects"? Is there a system log entry for that?

I ripped my personal CD collection to .WAV as I have the space and thought it was best quality. I used WMP.Everything ripped fine.for a while, the first song of each album kept 'losing' its track information. I would use the Find Album Info feature of WMP to fix this. Track info currently displays perfect in Windows Media Player Library or when browing using Windows Media Center.However, if I view the files in Windows Explorer, or use another program like Winamp to play the files (which i generally prefer), the first track of all my ripped CDs in WAV format has no track information, Unknown Album, title, etc... even tho' it displays fine in WMP Library.I cannot EDIT the track in Windows Explorer, and I can't find a track editor freeware that supports .WAV. Why? Do I need to re-rip everything in .MP3? This also ruins my ability to copy the files to my phone, as the first track is missing information on copy/conversion.

My net stopped working on 16Jun. I got home from work today (17Jun) to troubleshoot and received the same problems that Amelia66 had in her post. I was connected to my router, but had "limited connectivity" and the troubleshooter said that "windows couldn't automatically bind the ip protocol stack." I spent an hour on the phone with Netgear's tech support thinking it was the usb wireless adapter. All the other computers/phones/printers in the house could connect. After the netgear guy hung up on me or dropped the call and didn't call back (nor was I going to call him back), I went to the store and got a new usb wireless adapter (cisco this time). Uninstalled the old one, installed the new one and...same deal. Connected to the router, but not the internet. Read through Amelia66's posting and decided to try to system restore to before the 16th to see if that would work since the instructions listed there by Ihatecats seemed over my head. The only reason for the restore points were windows updates. Restored to the previous windows update and now it works. I plugged the old wifi adapter in before the restore since that would be the program installed before the restore.

I have dual monitors that work perfectly at windows startup.After leaving the computer alone for sometime (after powersave has occured on the monitors), I arrive back to the pc to find only one monitor returns from powersave (the same monitor everytime) Rebooting the system corrects the problem; or entering the device manager and selecting "scan for hardware changes" will also correct the problem.I've updated the video card to the most current drivers possible and do not know where to go after that. It's very annoying and have the exact same thing happening with a PC at work with completely different hardware.

This problem only occurs during W7 startup, after the "Starting Windows" logo screen. My display then goes black. A few seconds later the status light on the monitor changes color and it displays "Entering Power Save Mode". Several seconds after that, the display wakes up, showing me the user login screen. Then, all is well until next startup.
My PC is a new build:
Intel i5 2500K CPU, has onboard GPU (unused)
Mobo is ASRock Z77 Extreme4
GPU is a GeForce GTX 560
(known good) Dell monitor, ST2220
I've tried different monitors and tried switching to the other DVI connector on the GPU, no joy. Removed & reseated the GPU, no luck. Don't see any BIOS or Windows settings that seem to apply here. should I go ahead and call EVGA support for my GPU? Reaching the end of my rope, as I can't seem to find anyone else with this particular problem on the Inter-Webs.

So for about a week now some guy has been calling my wife and when she answers he does not talk, just breathes into the phone. ( obviously this started to scare her ) then she had a guy at her work answer when he called again, this time he just hung up no breathing into the phone.A few minutes latter she gets an email.[Title: Phone Etiquette "Rule # 1It is impolite to have someone else answer the phone for you."/]is email is from gmail and it seems gmail does not include the ip address in the header. I've also tried the reverse look up for the phone numbers ( it's been 2-3 diff numbers all (210) 353-XXXXIs there a way to get the ip address from a gmail account or find name/address of the phone number ( they are land lines not cell )

I recently installed a new HDD (Seagate ST9500424AS; p/n 9RW143-567) in my Sony VAIO VPCEH11FX and installed the OS using the Sony VAIO Recovery Media Kit (VPCE_10FX Series 989203008). During the installation, I selected the default or normal settings. A short while (1-2 weeks) after the installation was complete, I noticed that the track pad was not working after enabling it using Fn+F1. (The pointing device dialog box DOES appear when I press Fn+F1 and shows that it will toggle between enable & disable). I took the computer into Fry's (where I bought it) and they booted a different OS (I think it was Windows XP) using a CD. Using this OS, the track pad worked. So it was confirmed it wasn't a hardware issue. I proceeded to contact Sony. They had me do the following:
1) download the latest drivers & driver updates and install both. This didn't fix the problem.
2) uninstall 'Alps Pointing-device for VAIO' and run the .exe files for the driver & update. This didn't fix the problem.
3) boot the computer to recovery mode (press F10 when it starts); I noticed that the track pad was working in this mode.
4) Confirm that the other ALT keys functioned properly. (they do function properly)
The Sony rep asked me to confirm the type of HDD I installed (I forget what specifically he was interested in), but upon my reading him the part number, he confirmed the HDD was compatible.The Sony rep then suggested I either recover the system to a previous version/date and see if the track pad is working. (he seems to think some software I installed might have prevented the track pad from working) He also suggested I could reformat the HDD and reinstall the entire OS. I've balked at doing either, as I'm guessing there is an issue with the registry.

They have it under private beta apparently. But, it seems to be available on this post.
I've tried to sign up with no luck. Does anyone have the alternative way I could get the driver? Does it even work? I'm hearing conflicting things. Anyone have a modified version. I could really use it for S/PDIF.

I have ripped many cds to my laptop using Windows Media Player 12 and WAV audio format. This seemed to go smoothly but afterwards i noticed that a lot of my CDs have all BUT the first track tagged. I know how to change the info in WMP itself but this doesn't actually change the tag in windows explorer. After ripping, the correct folder on my hard drive will be made with all the tracks on the CD in the right place and every FILE named correctly. However, the first track will be labled "unkown" for each column in my music folder (album name, artist, composer, etc) while every track after that will have each column labled and labled correctly. I try to edit the tag manually from windows explorer but it wont let me edit anything but the actual file name.this is frustrating for syncing my music to my android phone as i have a lot of albums with the first track missing and then a huge unknown list with about 400 songs that are only labled "unknown". i really dont want to have to re-rip all these albums again through a different program or not. is their another solution? can i re-tag tracks manually in explorer so they will stay tagged correctly for good? anybody know why WMP does this?

So basically me and my brothers always argue over who should pay the bill for internet because of download so much. So I want to know if there is any program out there that allows you to track which computer downloads and how much it downloads from the internet. We have a main pc and a few laptops. So if there is any program that shows like IP or computer name or anything and shows how much they downloaded.

recently got a new laptop a Lenovo Y570. I moved my entire audio collection from my old laptop over and attempted to play songs in iTunes it repeatedly on the majority of songs skips to the next track at a random point throughout the song.this is not the 20 second preview setting in iTunes as it has skipped the same song at 5 seconds or 45 or even 2 mins in. I then tried the songs in Windows Media Player Classic same thing, and again in Windows Media Player 12. However from a few tests QuickTime seems to play songs fine.I updated the Renesas audio driver and tried the CCCP codec pack, then removed it and installed the basic K-Lite codec pack which seems to have fixed the problem for windows media player 12 but the others still dont work. *update tried more songs in WMP12 and it skips some songs midway thru as well.

Just setting up a new laptop with Windows 7 Pro. I would like to add a .scr file I created and used in my Windows XP Pro. Can I just move a copy of it into the Windows>System32 directory and then select it in the Personalization window (selecting the theme I'm using and then Screensaver)? In XP of course this was all done by right clicking on the desktop and selecting Properties. This brought up the Display Properties window where everything could be changed.
Anything to be careful of when adding to the System32 directory? Just don't want to screw anything up!

I set my screensaver for two minutes to check that it works properly. I have Windows Media Player running, and after 5 minutes, it still hasn't kicked in. Does it not work if WMP is running? I haven't touched the mouse or keyboard.

If I set my screensaver, It still shows "none" (see pic) I have had this problem on 7077 and 7100 (i think before that too) on this machine the screensaver still works but is everyone else having this issue? I also have power issues on another machine. It keeps turning the monitor on. That could be a mouse issue although I've tried two mice and it still happens. I am having all sorts of issues with themes in general but have any of you seen this?

Win 7 Home Prem SP1, 64 bit, 8 gb ram. Only using the screensavers that come with Windows, no matter which one I select at varying times it will fail. I can normally reboot and it works again for a time or switch to a new selection where it will work for 2-3 weeks again. I can't find any information on others experiencing the same issue and have been using numerous virus/spyware apps to find anything. MS Security Essentials, Avast, Stinger, Housecall, SuperAntiSpyware and only find tracking cookies.I know it would help if I could get the exact error message and will update when I do get a chance to write it down.
