Screensaver problems - ongoing and intermittant

Sometimes my VISTA screensavers work and sometimes they don't.
Screensaver problems seem to be a common, if minor, annoyance.
Doesn't seem to be related to HID, because I disable that and it doesn't
seem to make a difference.

How common is this, and what is mighty MS doing about it?

Re: Screensaver problems - ongoing and intermittant

Hi,

Problems with screensavers aren't inherint, they are caused by background
applications or processes that either do not terminate properly or interfere
with their initialization. A solution can be found by minimizing what loads
at boot and removing applications that are not Vista compatible.
