Black & white screensaver

My picture show screensaver converts to black and white after a few minutes
for both pictures and videos. I'm sure there is just a setting someplace
I've missed. Any suggestions?

What is your "picture show screensaver"?

It is the built in Vista Photos screensaver. This is on a laptop. Could
the power management settings be the reason?

Hi Terry,

Black and white is one of the random effects that's built in to the Photo
screensaver. You can choose several different effects via the Settings
button on the screensaver dialogue box.

I'm glad I saw this as it was something I had wondered about as I have the
photo's in my Picture folder set for a screensaver slide show.
I've only had this Vista machine a couple of weeks so still learning the ins
and outs of the system <g>

Thanks, I knew it was just an overlooked setting.
