Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Vista Photos Screensaver- blanks to black
Cel   2007-06-22 07:08
I purchased UltraMon to run the Vista Photos screensaver on two monitors. I have both monitors set to the same resolution and refresh rate. I have the Windows screensaver tab set to Ultramon. I have “Preview” checked on the UltraMon screensaver tab. When I click the Preview button on the screensaver tab, both monitors blank and then go into the Photos screensaver on both monitors, just the way they should and the way I would like them to behave.

However when I click OK to exit out of the screensaver tab, after 5 minutes when the screensaver should kick in, the monitors blank to black and do nothing. Right clicking the UltraMon icon in the task bar, selecting Screensaver and Launch likewise blanks to black and does nothing.

What additional steps do I need to do to set the program to work? Thanks./ cel

This doesn't work with the Vista version of the slideshow screen saver.

I'm going to look into this for one of the next releases, but am not sure yet if it's something that can be fixed in UltraMon.

Christian-

Thanks for the reply. Does version 2.7 work at all with Vista? I know that it's not listed, but sometimes programs work with some configurations.

Thanks again./ cel

2.7.1 does work on Vista, with a couple of issues, more information here.

Please note that you'll also have the issue with the Photos screen saver with 2.7.1.
