  • OpenGL Screensavers & Power Management ?

    First off, count me as one very happy G400 SH owner. Having gone through several different cards (ATi Rage Fury, STB 4400), the G400 is the best for image quality. Since I'm doing more graphics work lately (and a few games), I'd prefer a clear image over an extra ounce of speed for a game.

    That said, one question. The G400 seems to have a problem with running an OpenGL screen saver and then having a power management feature (i.e. turn off monitor, hard disk, etc). The problem I run into is that if I have "turn off monitor" enabled, the screen saver will cause a GPF.

    This is about the only driver problem I've run into and can live without a 3D OpenGL screen saver. Just wondering if anyone else has the same problem.
