    Friends Father wants his old "Swiming fish" screensaver on his new XP computer that his son bought him.
    I found it on an old Win98 machine & copied it to a XP machine but can't get it to work.
    Anyone know what I need to do ?
    File name in Win98 is Underwater.scr

    Yes... I put it in C:\Windows\System because thats where it was in Win 98.
    Then I moved it to C:\Windows\System32 because thats where the other screensavers for XP are.
    Nope... It didn't work in either place.
    I'll check out the link but they don't want to pay for a screensaver.
    Thanks

    Sorry, couldn't quite remember where most of the .scr files were located, but serene has a very good fish screen saver. My Mom loves it. :)
