hi,
is where any Way to disable Monitor-Poweroff in Windows XP?
i've tried catching WM_Syscommand with wParam SC_MONITORPOWER and
SystemParametersInfo with SPI_SETPOWEROFFACTIVE, but nothing works. I can
simulate Mouseactions in a timer-event like this
    Mouse_Event(MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE, $00000001, 0, 0, 0);
    Mouse_Event(MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE, $FFFFFFFF, 0, 0, 0);
but this is IMHO a dirty solution. Is there a better way to do what i want?

Thx in advance

Frank
