Customize Screen Saver in Windows Vista

I want to customize my screen saver in windows Vista. I want to use something
other than pictures like a video type of screen saver that I downloaded from
a business.
Does anyone have a clue as to how I can do this?
It was easy with earlier versions of windows even XP.
Thanks for any help!
