When it goes to the screen saver, all that is shown is a blank black screen...why is that? A few hours ago, the actual screen saver was shown. Is there something wrong with it? I have a Windows XP computer, and, as I said before, it was working well. ID: 5143 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

However, this problem seems only to occur when I check the box for "password entry upon reactivation" (or whatever it is in the english version of Win XP). Whenever I uncheck this box or just "test" the screen saver, graphics are shown. Otherwise, it just goes to blank screen... BUG !! ;-) ID: 5546 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
