Hi Jason,

You have to uncheck (disable) the "on resume, password protect" feature on
screen saver tab. To do that, follow the simple instruction:

Go to control panel and double click "Display" icon
Go to "screen saver" tab
uncheck the "on resume, password protect" box.
Click "OK" to save.

It would prevent giving password while running screen saver.

Thanks
