I am unable to change my screensaver. When i go to the screensaver tab
in display properties, the screen saver shows a greyed out "windows XP"
and the drop down box is unselectable. I can't change the wait time
either. Settings says that there are no settings for this screen saver
and preview pops up the XP logo. I have multiple screensavers, so why
can't I select them?
 
Try Kelly's tweak -
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Line#51 - ScreenSaver Disable , Enable or Tab Missing
Line#128 - Restore Desktop and Screensaver Tabs
Line #227 - Restore/Enable Screensaver Tab Settings/Display

Instructions are on the top of the page.

line 227 was the fix. Thanks!


How in the world did this kelly person ever figure out what each of
those settings does?
