    Re: change screensaver

    the SystemParametersInfo API allows you to enable/disable screensaver.
    use the SPI_SETSCREENSAVEACTIVE as uiAction parameter and uiParam to True/False.

    SystemparametersInfo has also a few uiAction values that you can use for dealing with power off issues:
    SPI_SETPOWEROFFACTIVE
    SPI_SETPOWEROFFTIMEOUT
