Did you try looking at the settings of the screen saver? Maybe yours doesn't move

screen savers serve no purpose any more. They used to protect screens from "burnig". Now-a-days most screens have what I think is called image dithering. The picture looks like it is still but is really shaking back and forth very quickly to prevent damage. I forget where I read that, maybe an A+ certification book.

Don't know where you got that info either Geo but it's incorrect. Shaking it back and forth is not going to prevent screen burn.
