Clint, Because I never remember to do that and I run defrag with no explorer or other programs running, but screen saver still will come on. Plus I usually run defrag then leave the computer, when I come back the screen saver is active and defrag has not gotten very far. Jeff

If it's 98xx and not XP, why not do it the regular way? Go to display properties, then open the 'screen saver' tab. Set that to 'none', then click 'settings', then set monitor to never power down. -Clint God Bless Us All Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com � ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Dougherty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/1119/ I tried to follow the instructions on this link to disable screen saver during defrag, but not all the information matches what I see. In registry editor, right column, I only have two columns. Name and data. columns..no value column. Here is what I entered..is this the same thing?
