Screen Saver Will Not Work counsel 5/22/2007 9:51:01 PM I just bought a new Toshiba laptop with Vista OS but, the screen savers will not work. However, I can access the screen savers through the Control Panel and even "Preview" them. Anybody have an idea as to how I can make the screen savers "work"?
