My screensaver only runs for 1 sec. or less, before stopping. There is no mouse or keyboard activity when it stops, and no other screensaver has this problem. I am a bit frustrated and very confused on how to get the screensaver to run. I am running Win XP on and Intel 3.0 ghz processor with 1 gig memory. Any info would be appreciated.

Have you set a blank time in the windows screensaver preferences? There was a bug where if this was unset even if it was not used it would cause problems. I thought it had been fixed but I could be wrong.
