In the screensaver display settings, there is a box you
can check to activate the screensaver password. On mine,
this option is grayed out so I cannot check the box. Any
ideas on how to activate this again?
 
Open your registry and find the key below.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Control
Panel\Desktop]

Create a new DWORD valued called "ScreenSaverIsSecure" and set it to a value
from the table below.
a.. (Not in registry) - Users can turn password-protection on and off.
a.. 0 - Screen savers are not password-protected.
a.. 1 - All screen savers are password-protected.
