All screensavers or just one?
Does even the preview work?

Also, have you got any applications running in the background causing activity which
may stop the screensaver from coming on?

Troubleshooting Screen Saver Issues in XP

Posting from another user by the name of David:
â€I figured out what the problem is. It's the Microsoft Wireless Mouse. If I switch
the mouse to one with a tail the screensaver works.â€
then David posted again
â€I got a fix. I changed to connection to the computer using the USB to PS2 adapter
that came with the mouse. Now I get the screensaver. I would be interested to find
out why this works.â€

works on the wrong amdin accounts. i have tried to registry edit. you

they need an edit button...the screen saver works on the non-admin server.
