Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron running Vista. Had no problems until recently
when the screensaver started to refuse to work. Even when I go to screen
saver settings and select preview the screensaver just comes on for less than
a second and goes off again.

I have got a wireless mouse but have always used it, I have tried unplugging
it, but to no avail. I have also tried a selective startup with only
microsoft programs on startup, but still no joy.

Anyone got any ideas as its really frustrating!!
 
Tryed restoring back to earliest point possible, screensaver is still not
working! Any other ideas?
 
This may not help, but let you know you are not alone.

My Vista (Ultimate) also had this occurred: the screen saver simply stopped
for no apparent reason, no matter what I do to reset, change the screen
saver's configuration. And after a period of no show (about 2 or 3 months),
it works again without noticeable reason. I am sure something may caused
this, such as security update... Just do not know what and/or why.
