    My screen saver won't run when I leave my PC. The only thing new to my system is I plugged in a Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse (Microsoft Wireless Mulitmedia Keyboard 1.1) and installed the software to program the keyboard. If I go to properties and test the screen saver it works just fine. In reading, I tried the Dial-A-Fix and that didn't fix the problem.

    Running: Dell P4, 2.8GHz, 512MB, XP Home SP2.

    Click on Start > Run > type msconfig > click on the Startup tab and see if you have one of the items listed below. If so, disable it. Restart and try the screensaver.

    1. Ehtray.exe.
    2. DVDLauncher.exe
    3. Power DVD
    4. PCM service.
    5. Dell Media software
