Hanging when coming back from screen saver

Fri Nov 19, 2010 5:31 am

If I get up and leave my computer, it goes to screen saver. When I come back and wiggle the mouse, I have it set up to demand a password. When I put the password in, it gives me the normal desktop and will not switch back to WWI. In the Task Manager I can see that the WWI.exe resource is consistently using 50% of system resources so it is doing something but it won't let me back in.

I'm running Win XP SP3 fully updated. Processor is a Core2 Duo with 1 GB of RAM. Graphics adapter is a NVIDIA GeForce 7300SE/7200 GS.

Anything I can do about this other than disable the screen saver? (I'm trying to avoid having my kids come in and use the computer without permission.)

Nothing to do, sorry. When this happens all DirectX device objects are lost and the game crashes... :(
