I can't seem to remove or change my screen blanker. It justs turns the screen blank after 30 seconds no matter what I do. I hvae removed it entirely from the "Commodities" drawer after trying to edit it (and its icon). I want to use the EGS Spectrum blanker instead. The blanker that is working is also very annoying because it blanks the screen even if I'm working in EMPLANT Mac emulation and the mouse is active. Bill

Bill, My guess is that you have a copy of the blanker icon in your WBStartup drawer. Remove it from there (copy it back to your Commodities drawer) and it should stop being run. Hope this helps…. – BobR

Bob, I have removed blanker entirely (so far as I can find it) entirely from my DH0 drive. It still happens. My WBStartup drawer is empty. I have set EGSNight? to 180 seconds but the screen goes black before that. $%^&*()_+ Bill

Do you have any programs running that include built-in screen blanker options? I believe Dir Works had such an option. Check and see if any of the programs you are running offer a simular option. Ron. — (Stealing from one, is Plagiarism. Stealing from many, is research.)
