Hi Philip, I'm interested in how to disable the display myself. My understanding was you could put it to sleep, but not outright disable it via the Windows API. If it is possible I'd be interested in this project myself. On 6/14/11, Philip Bennefall phi...@blastbay.com wrote: Hi Yohandy, This

another way is to set the font to as small as you can go and set the resolution to as low as you can though that does muck with readers some. At 09:31 p.m. 15/06/2011, you wrote: Hi Yohandy, I don't believe what you want to do is possible based on my understanding of the Windows API. You can
