I have a bunch of screensavers but my computer wont let
me choose to use one of them. It's really wierd because
it let me before I reformatted my hard drive but now it
doesn't. Is that all that wierd?

Is the tab for screen savers missing? Or its there, but the list of
available screen savers is greyed out?

Have you tried...

- Place ".SCR" files in "C:\WINDOWS\system32" folder.

- Rename your new ScreenSaver so that the filename begins
with the lower-case letters "ss", and delete any space
characters in the filename.

- Right-click the ".SCR" file, then click | Install |

It's really wierd because it let me before I reformatted
