I set my screensaver to come on after 5 minutes. It will do just that, but
after several times it won't so I have to set it again to come on after 5
minutes. Rarely will I make it thru a day without having to reset it several
times.
 
Any/all screensavers or just one in particular?

A workaround to having to open display properties at any time the ss is reset
to none is to place a shortcut to the ss on the desktop or in the Start >
Program menu. Next right click the shortcut, click properties and set a
shortcut key using ctrl+alt+?, replace ? with a letter. Now if you want to
activate the ss you just press the key combo you set. You could also place the
shortcut in quicklaunch and a single click will activate the ss.

Click S in the menu and scroll to "Screen Saver - Set to None".
