Hi,I watch HULU tv on my computer.
A few months ago I crashed my computer and took it to be fixed.
Well when I watch HULU...after about 10-15-mins. the screen goes black. How do I make it stay in picture with out having to wiggle the mouse every 10 mins.
Thank you kindly :)

I don't know what kind of computer you have, but I think there is a screen saver setting somewhere that you can change the setting.

First right click on your desktop
then left click on personalize
then screensaver
then change power settings (at bottom of box)
then change your "put computer to sleep" setting to however long you want...mine is set on never because my computer is also my phone.
be sure to click the button that "saves changes".

The above post have given you good information. Your computer is going to "sleep" when it is not active on it (you moving the mouse or using keyboard) You need to change the power setting. This really is an easy fix. good luck and keep enjoy Hulu (one of my favorite sites).
