SYMPTOMS

  • The computer is configured to start the screen saver when the computer starts.

In this scenario, the following issues can occur:
  • For stations that are configured for auto-logon, the auto-logon process does not continue until the screen saver is dismissed by input from the keyboard or from the mouse. 
  • For stations that are configured for manual logon, the screen saver is displayed instead of the logon screen, and the screen saver does not respond immediately to input from the keyboard or from the mouse.
