I need a nice Pictures Slideshow screensaver
blusporttrac[ at ]yahoo.com 06.07.2007 19:59:31
I like the picture slideshow screensaver that is in XP Media Center it
looks very smooth. Can i download\purchase something like this for my
XP pro system? I know XP pro has a slide show screensaver but it does
not compare to XP media centers.

Thanks

Windows XP Media Center Edition includes screensavers and themes that
Microsoft previously made available only in its $20 Plus! for Windows XP
package. Bundled screensavers include the ever-popular Aquarium (now with
more fish), Da Vinci, Nature, and Space. Themes include Aquarium, Da Vinci,
Nature, and Space. XP MCE 2005 also ships with a unique screensaver called
My Pictures Premium: This screensaver presents an animated slideshow of your
My Pictures folder, with optional background music, and is quite nice.

So - after a Google search brought up that - I would suggest you search for
"My Pictures Premium" and/or "Windows XP Plus!" and get the package while
you can still find it - as Microsoft discontinued it...
