Have you looked in your Start menu for your user guide? It should also be on the Acer web site. However you may just need to change the screen saver. Right-click an empty area of your desktop and click Properties. After that depends on which version of Windows you have and unfortunately you neglected to mention that little detail.
I have the above mentioned Acer Laptop. I cannot find my book and I need to know this.....
After I use my laptop and let it sit, the screen blanks which I guess it means it is sleeping. How do I get my session back without rebooting?
