K Kelly Aug 4, 2003 #2 Hi, Is it being set to None? Check your setting for the screensavers path. Here are some examples: Marine Aquarium 2.scr > rename it to > MarineAquarium2.scr In the registry, screensaver will work correctly if it is listed as so: c:\windows\system32\marine~1.scr Screen Savers do not work correctly if listed as so: ""c:\windows\system32\marine aquarium 2.scr"" Troubleshooting Screen Saver Issues in XP http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_s.htm#ss /xp_tweaks.htm Top 10 Frequently Asked Questions and Answers http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/top10faqs.htm

No, it is not set to none. An XP installed screen saver is selected to 1 minute. Nothing ever happens...all night. I have made no changes to any of the names so they should work fine. AFJ
