Hey all I'm putting this in a new thread and not in a u2u to Vice because I want to both ask if anyone else has a problem with this as well as bring it up as a potential umm annoyance.
In most games when you are "full screen" the windows screen saver does not activate because of the full screen focus. However in Evochron because of the nature of it as far as I know and have been told though it is full screen it always runs in a window so windows will always pop up with the screensaver.
Now just short of turning off the screen saver everytime I have evochron going... would there be any way of getting a fix/change so that the screen saver doesn't come on? Would be really good since I often leave my evochron sitting there warping while I'm off getting a drink or talking to the missus. It wouldn't bother me so much except that when the screensaver goes... it completely screws the game and I have to kill it thus losing any progress I've made then go back into it.
Any thoughts/suggestions/flames/rants about this? Would really appreciate it.

It is not feasible to put the screen saver to a time that don't start as you pick a drink or go to the toilet?
Let's say something around 30 minutes at the least, one hour would be better. Modern monitors don't take damage so easily if left with a fixed screen so there is no need to have it start after 5 minutes.
I keep mine that short only when I use O&O Defrag as screen saver so it defragment my HD when I leave it for 10 minutes.

Ohhh thanks Eclipse I didn't know there was that mode. Will try it now. I was hoping there was an option somewhere already that I might have missed. I've gone through it a couple of times when I wanted to play in a windows exclusively
LOL Just realized it was split up into two different settings and I was only using the first one. Duh sorry for the pointless post. Delete it if you want Vice.
