    Unable to increment the time that before Windows locks


    This is something that has just started occurring. I did not make any alterations to the system to cause this. Now I cannot work out what I need to change to fix the problem, so I am hoping that someone knows the answer.The computer locks after 1 minute and requires me to enter my pin to commence work again and I am not able to change this. A couple of screen shots of the set up included. Power settings screen shot for information. The second screen shot refers to Power setting preventing some options, but I don't know which particular settings. I am hoping someone knows what needs to be done

    :)

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?
