Guest Don Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 I need to know what service / process initiates the screensaver and if I can re-initiate within a script. Thanks for replies...
Guest Dave Patrick Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Re: initiate screensaver The SCR files are executable so you can just call them directly appending the /s switch for full screen mode. -- Regards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.

Guest Don Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Re: initiate screensaver This looks like what I'm after, but it didn't seem to work. Are you saying that the screen saver settings are initialized as part of the user32.dll? Since the lockworkstation didn't work, I went through all the parts of user32. Unfortunatley without descriptions to go by, it's very cryptic. Any other ideas?

Guest Dave Patrick Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Re: initiate screensaver What was the result? That works on any 32 bit operating system I've tried. What was the result of executing the SCR? -- Regards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.
