    Wrong forum - this is for shrink. To get a better response post in the appropriate forum. I'll see if I can get this transported to the right one probably 'all other topics'.

    there's your problem right there. an intel P2 processor won't be able to handle XP Pro. you're going to have to upgrade your processor/mobo/ram to install Pro.

    well, in that case, check your power settings and see if you have any options there to fix your issue. right click on your background, select properties, go the screensaver, then Power.
