Hello,
Thank you for using newsgroup!
Thanks David for his kindly experience sharing. Actually, if you have
installed Microsoft wireless pointing device that uses Microsoft
IntelliPoint software may cause this similar issue. For information, you
may refer to the following article:

pointing device on a Windows XP SP2-based computer

| I know that with Vista Ultimate RTM x86, if you have a Microsoft Wireless
| Laser Mouse 6000 (amongst others, I believe), the screen saver won't
| activate under current Microsoft mouse drivers. But, I don't know if
that

No
| driver updates or scheduled task changes?
