While battery is charging the 3D screensaver is interrupted.
I have noticed a strange phenomenon on my Vostro 1000. I have Windows
XP Home and the MS Plus! screensavers installed. The video adaptor is the ATI Radeon Xpress 1150. I specifically have the Robot Circus screensaver active. When the battery is fully charged and the laptop is using the AC power the screensaver works normally. If I switch to batter power the screensaver works normally. But when I reconnect the AC adaptor to re-charge the battery the screensaver is interrupted about every 1-2 minutes. The wait time starts over again but after 1-2 minutes of running it's interrupted again. This continues until the battery is fully charged. |

Does this have something to do with the powersaving options? Maybe you should play around with what turns off when AC or DC is used... -- The Zero ST |

Dell uses all kinds of proprietary stuff. |
