Screensaver

Is anyone else having a problem getting their screensaver to work? Mine worked for one day and then quit. Everything is checked correctly.
Any ideas on what to do?

Do you have a wireless mouse/keyboard installed? The Microsoft products in
particular seem to conflict with the screensaver. There's a patch you can
apply from the Windows Update Site ("HID Non-User Input Data Filter") that
should fix the problem.

Brilliant reply... I have been waiting for that update for over 2 years. I
can now use the wirelessmouse/keyboard and the remote on my Media Centre and
still have the screensaver working after I turn of the media centre.

Just as a matter of interest how did you find out about this optional
update?

Thanks so much for the information. I just downloaded the patch and my screensaver is now working.
