I recently updated a computer with new hardware and Vista 64bit OS.  I have
not been able to get any of the enclosed screensavers to work.  They work
fine in "preview" mode, but won't kick in as timed screensavers.  I've tried
adjusting all the settings I can find, and nothing obvious is running which
should block the startup of the screensaver.  Does anyone have any advice?

Are you using a MS intellipoint mouse? If so, the fix is in the link.
