Hi my imac screen dims itself after 3 minutes no matter what the energy saver time is set at. I have it set to 15 minutes for the display to go to sleep and 20 minutes for the computer to go to sleep but how do i stop the screen from going dim after 3 minutes??

Thanks People

try setting the screen saver to 15 minutes. My iMac Core Duo does not have your problem.
