[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

Hello everyone
i put a desktop short cut to a screen saver in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\
directory. the problem is that when i click that short cut the screen saver
works fine but does not lock the account, so that if any one moved the mouse
it does not go to the log in screen first as what happens when it is
activated normally aftrer xx minutes.
Any help?

Thanks in advance

Somehow I seem to have made Real Player a default, because when I click on
Windows Media Player to listen to a radio station--where I am given a choice
between WMP and RP--Real Player loads automatically. I can never get to WMP/

Looks like you can't do it.

Jerry,

Open Media Player directly and go to Tools, Options, File Types and check the files that you want associated with Media Player.
