Default Paradox closes when idle - 04-16-2008 , 12:15 PM





Paradox 9.00.738
WinXP SP2
1 GB memory

Occasionally after Pdx has been idle for awhile (and maybe also when the
Desktop is idle in same period), 10 or 30 minutes perhaps, I may return
to the PC, touch a key, and find Paradox closing up (close windows then
self) or already closed (not visible in Alt-tab sequence or in Task Mangler)

Is Paradox intelligent enough to become petulant, or to balk at
inattention and then close?

Any likely corrective action? Rub Pdx's head, send it some love?

Thanks!

-GeneM

Thanks, Steven. Maybe drive sleep is the problem. What do others do?
1) Change Power Options?
2) Use Paradox to run a timer event and tweak the hard drive every 20-30
minutes of so?

My PC's Power Options seem to have a default to "Turn off hard disks" at
option "After 1 hour".
