Why can't I disable the screensaver and enable 120 DPI?


Recommended Posts

Here is my registry tweak file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 

; Disable screensavers
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"ScreenSaveActive"="0"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"SCRNSAVE.EXE"=""
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]
"ScreenSaveActive"="0"
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]
"SCRNSAVE.EXE"=""

; 120 DPI
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontDPI]
"LogPixels"=dword:00000078

Right now I'm using a program called HFSLIP for my unattended install. However, even when I use the txtsetup method, these two registry tweaks filed to work. Why is that the case? How are you guys managing to get these two tweaks to work?

Sgt, I don't disable the screen saver but I do select a custon screen saver and adjust the timing . . . through the custom theme file that I have integrated into my disc. If you search for "Royale Theme" you should probably find it. You can most likely change your dpi there as well. It's not a reg tweak, I know, but it does the job nicely.

The thing is that I want this all done in an unattended installation. I just don't understand how people manage to get these two tweaks to work and yet I can't.

Make your changes and save the theme as luna.theme.

Rename Luna.theme to Luna.the

Makecab Luna.the and you'll get luna.th_

Replace the existing one in your I386 folder with the one you just made.

Windows will use that one when installing.

And this will disable my screensaver? Are there no registry tweaks that does this?
