i have a problem about the desktop screen saver. i have set it to 10 mins, but everytime i get back from away. the desktop screensaver is not on. the screen is still look the same as when i was away. then i tried to wait for the 10 mins and watch. after 10 mins, the screensaver was on, but less than 10 seconds, its back on to normal screen. i didnt touch anything, and no programs were running on the background when i was testing it. well, the monitor turn off by itself after idle for 1 hours as i set it. its just the screensaver problem. 3.2GHZ Intel Pentium EE 840 1GB Dual-channel DDR2-533 RAM Asus P5ND2-SLI Deluxe mobo 2 EVGA E-Geforce 7800GTX Creative Soundblaster X-Fi 550W PSU

Have you tried another screensaver? Sorry, I do not check for private messages

Got a wireless mouse? My screensaver sometimes comes off when my mouse is low on battery or if I have another wireless device near by(cordless phone).

You probably have something not plugged in tight. Somewhere something is arcing to stay connected. Maybe something needs replaced - like a battery or the settings you are setting are not being locked in because of a poorly written screensaver. Try a standard Windows Screensaver to see if they do the same thing. Tomorrow the Stars!
