Disable standby mode

[Egk]

I would like to prevent windows from entering the standby mode during the runtime of my LV application. Is there a way to do this in my program? A way to prevent the screen saver from starting would also be nice..

Thanks,

Martin

Usually these settings are saved in the registry, you can modify registry values programatically (what the control panel interface is often doing) but be warned that the registry stores many important settings which should not be messed with.  I would do a quick search to see if there is a registry key which determines the screen saver and standby modes.  I usually just disable these from the control panel for computers which have programs with adverse effects form these modes.

Thank you for your answer.

At a first look into the registry I didn't find any "Standby"-settings.
The problem is, that I would like to deploy a software to various computers with an installer. The LabView program running on these machines should then not be interrupted by the screensaver or the standby mode. I might not be allowed to change registry values on that machines due to user privileges settings...

So, maybe any other ideas?

Thanks,
Martin
