Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Screen Saver problem

Im running a GeForce3 and a GeForce4 MX420. Im having a problem with my screen saver. It displays on both monitors but exits after about 15 seconds. It then waits for whatever amount of time I have the screensaver come on and then does the same thing. Any way to make it work right?

Are you using the UltraMon Screen Saver?

I guess you have configured the UltraMon screen saver with a single screen saver on the primary monitor?

Try disabling secondary monitors, it looks like the screen saver doesn't support running on multi-monitor systems. To do this, choose Screen Saver > Configure from the UltraMon menu, then select the Options tab and check the 'disable secondary monitors' box.

If it still doesn't work: see this thread for information on how to check if the problem is with the UltraMon screen saver or the screen saver configuration.

Please let me know if it works when you disable secondary monitors (in UltraMon Screen Saver).

You can also send me a download link for the screen saver and I'll give it a try on my system.

Works fine on my system (Windows XP).

If you are using Windows 2000 or XP: download DisplayEnum.zip and run DisplayEnum.exe. Please send me a screenshot of the message (you can also copy the text using CTRL+C).

don't worry its not your system its your screensaver, that screensaver is just very buggy, and even though it supports multiple monitors, it really sucks at it
