    Why won't the screensaver enable?

    No matter what time I have the screenaver set at to turn on, it doesn't. I returned the first A105 I got becasue of a dead pixel. The screensaver worked on that one and I am not doing any thing different on this one that I am aware of. I had it set at 30 min before I went to bed and went I got up it still had not come on. I now have it at a minute now and it still won't come on. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    That's pretty strange, I can't think why it would be happening unless there's something up with the system clock not working right, but that's doubtful as you'd notice the time on your machine doesn't work.

    You could always go into the Power settings and set the monitor to turn off after a certain amount of time, it accomplishes the same thing as a screen saver and saves more energy.
