Touch screen

[Rick Cantrell]

My computer has a touch screen (I don't know why)
Anyhow several times I have come back to find it is not the way I left it.
Found out what the problem is
The light from the screen attracts bugs
The bugs land on the screen
If they land on a link, the link opens.
Better start checking to see what the (the bugs) have ordered on ebay;)

does that bug you?

[Rick Cantrell]

Can I do that?
How?

How?

Should be able to set the screen saver to a short time like 2 minutes of inaction or just hit "sleep" when you walk away. Move to where the bugs are smaller!:eek:

The touch screen is working even on the screen saver.
One night I saw a very small fly land on the screen
As the fly walked around it was like clicking with the mouse pointer.
I do not see an option to turn the touch screen off.

If your running XP, there is an option to turn off the monitor after a specified period of time. Just go in to the control panel, performance and maintenance, then power management.
