I do leave my computer running 24-7 and I have a huge CRt screen. I don't want screen burn-in happening. No this is not my work computer. It's my home personal computer. I played some more with joy2key and while the program works it doesn't work in game. I can go to notepad and the controller buttons work as keyboard presses. It work fines on notepad. And in game, all the buttons work except the regular buttons 1, 2, 3 etc.. I have those mapped as DEL INSERT HOME END PGUP PGDN. I'm guessing it's just that group of 6 buttons that joyTokey doesn't support ingame. I can't change the button layout cause its set to those buttons for ALL my emulators. :dizzy: |

Question for you efjayel: Are you using a 3rd Party Screen saver or is it a Windows Screen saver? Also, is the screen saver left on all night or does your computer eventually sleep? I used to leave my computer on 24/7 but I never had the screen saver active, however I did have sleep options set (monitor turns off after 20 minutes). I would also turn off the monitor off manually to save energy. |
