Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Screensaver Hotkey issue
Andy   2010-12-14 21:39
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit across two monitors, one via the standard monitor port and one on my TV via HDMI. Both displays have the same resolution. Generally works perfectly - thanks.

I am also using the UltraMon screensaver to put different savers on each screen, one for photos (monitor) and the other a fish tank (TV).

If I try to start the screensaver with either a hotkey or the UltraMon menu, the screens blacken as though the saver is starting but then it immediately stops and the normal display reappears. After that the screensaver refuses to run, either by normal time delay, hotkey, ultramon menu or other usual means. The screensaver preview does work however. Once I reboot, all is normal again provided that I don't use UltraMon or a hotkey to start the screensaver. I have tried a variety of hotkey combinations and it's always the same.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Andy.

Are you using the Photos screen saver included with Windows 7?

Dear Christian,

Whatever the issue was, the version 3.1 update seems to have fixed it! It was happening with any screensaver I tried. However, it now works fine.

Many thanks,

Andy.
