My Dell Desktop PC Inspiron 530 has no screen saver enabled, however the Dell logo with 'www.dell.com' appears often & stays for some time, even while working.

How can I remove this?

  • Why don´t you try Dell Support ? They are bound to be faster than looking around on the net. Apr 16, 2013 at 9:58
  • Check msconfig for the list of Dell programs being loaded at startup, especially power-related software.

You didn't list the version of Windows, but you could try checking the registry key for screensavers to verify they are turned off:

Go to Start -> Run -> Regedit

Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_USERS.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop.
Value Name: ScreenSaveActive,
Data Type: REG_SZ (String Value),
Value Data: (0 = disabled, 1 =enabled).

Change the value of 'ScreenSaveActive' to '0' to disable the screen saver. Restart Windows for the change to take effect.


Another option would be to check to see if any Dell screensavers or related Dell utilities are installed and uninstall them.
