How do I activate my screensaver? I have XP pro. I can preview it and choose it, apply it, but it never comes on.
Thanks,
mal

How long do you have it set to wait for?

Uninstall it and reinstall, if you must use a screen saver
at all.

Try switching to a different screen saver, change the time to one minute
and leave mouse and keyboard alone until after the minute has completely
passed. Does it still not work?
