Iwas wondring how you would turn off the screen savor in windows xp. I'm running xp pro with sp3 installed. Any help would be welcome. Thanks.

Hey there, the following should work.
windows-R for the run command dialogue box.
desk.cpl, display properties should come up.
Control tab twice in that window, and the screensaver tab should be in focus.
Your cursor should be already sitting inside the combo box of choices. Go to the top of that combo box and it should say none.
Tab down to ok, and that should do it.
Hope this helps!

if you don't feel comfortable working with the run dialog selecting display from the control panel will get you to to display properties as well. after that just follow the instructions already provided.
