I set up a screen saver in Windows Vista, but it never comes on. I can
activate it by previewing, but it never starts on its own.
 
Try this:
In taskmanager\processes tab Right-click ehtray.exe, and then click End
Process
 
Hi!

Last June, I installed Vista Beta and bought Microsoft USB wireless Keybord
and Mouse 6000.
The Screen saver and Power options did not work.
Th same problem with Vista RC1.
The same problem with with Vista RC2
The same problem with Vista RTM Ultimate.

But, now, it works . . . at last!

The only thing I installed is this update coming from Windows
updates:

Microsoft - Other Hardware - HID Non-User Input Data Filter

Installation date: 2007-02-05 20:13

Installation status: Successful

Update type: Optional

Microsoft Other Hardware sofware update released in January, 2007

And it works!!!!

Have a nice day!

P.S. At last, I see the beautiful Bubbles screen saver!

Thank you very much. Too bad windows help has nothing to offer put to tell
me how to turn it on which I did at least a dozen times to no avail until I
followed your advice.
 
Randor,
Thanks for the Windows Update info, I downloaded it and now my screen
saver is working great and I still have my wireless mouse and keyboard going.
 
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del

This brings up a menu screen, the last option is "Start Task Manager". Click
