Thanks for your replies and suggestions here ... Happy New Year to both of you.
BC_Programmer, ... using the command you provided, the results are as follows, ...
HID Keyboard Device
Intel(R) 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection
HID-compliant mouse (007)
I manually copied those as I couldn't do a copy/paste in the command prompt window ...
Also, I understand, the screensaver has nothing to do with the monitor turning off (or back on) ... I was simply stating how I had them set. The keyboard and mouse are both USB wired. I would love to be using a wireless keyboard and mouse but, I don't care for the way they eat up batteries.
So now, according to the results of the powercfg code, ... Does this mean something within my network connection, ie, router activity, might be waking the screensaver?
As far as the WinAmp issue I'll have to dig through the settings and see what I might be able to find there ...
Another thing related to "quirks" I noticed since originally posting, ...If I open, say my, mp3 folder, no, wait ... oh, this must be a setting within the program as well ... I didn't notice THAT till now ... I am using TugZip 3.5 for my unzipping utility. When I open it, there are four columns ... They are ... "Name", "Size", "Item Type" and "Date Modified" ... I hope I can explain this so it can be understood here .... the "Name" column has, say, all the CD titles listed in my zipped CD folder ... only part of the titles are visible so, if I hover the mouse pointer between the Name and Size columns at the top, the double arrow with a vertical line between them appears to move the Size column over to read the full titles in the Name column. Good, now it should stay there (at my preference),when I close the window but, it doesn't ... next time I open TugZip to unzip and listen to a CD, it is back where it was. I have to slide the column over again to read the titles. I can't find a preference setting to correct it.
