Screensaver won't display after installing flat panel

[Guest]

I installed a new flat panel monitor (Westinghouse) and at the same time I
installed a new wireless keyboard & mouse (Microsoft). Now the screensaver
(typical XP) won't activate. I can preview it, but it will not activate no
matter what time I set it to start. Same with the power option - no matter
what I set it to, my monitor will not power off.

This is a plug and play monitor, so no driver is necessary. Reloaded the
graphics driver. Rebooted, of course. Also reloaded graphics card driver. No
luck.

Anyone run into this before?

Does not matter. Still needs the correct driver installed for the monitor.
Failing that try switching back to the wired pointing and keyboard devices.
