Screen Saver - "An error is preventing this slide show from playin

Neither the slide show screen saver, nor the slide show gadget display. Each
comes up with the same error.

Has a component been deleted accidently?

Regards

Re: Screen Saver - "An error is preventing this slide show from playin

Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories and right-click
on the Command Prompt and choose "Run as administrator".
Type in: SFC /SCANNOW and press your Enter key.

This should fix any corrupted system files and settings.

If that does not work, try repairing your system. Boot from your Windows
Vista DVD, select the System Repair Option > on the setup screen, select
'Repair Computer > Select your installation of Windows > select Startup
Repair option and follow instructions.
