Turning off the display automatically
To save power, it’s a good idea to set the display to turn off
automatically when you’re not using the computer. You can do
this several ways:
❖ Use the Windows Display Properties to enable a blank screen
saver.
❖ Use the Windows Power Saver Properties to turn off the LCD
panel after a certain amount of time has passed.
Enabling the screen saver
1 Click Start, point to Settings, then click Control Panel.
2 Double-click Display, and click the Screen Saver tab.
Screen Saver tab of the Display Properties dialog box
3 In the section labeled Screen Saver, select Blank Screen.
4 In the Wait window, click the up and down buttons to set the
number of minutes before the display turns off automatically.
5 Click OK to save your changes and exit the Display
Properties dialog box.
