I had the same problem, seems the problem was something else: the system.ini file in windows folder, was set as a 'read only' file, so changes made to set your screensaver where not saved in the system.ini folder. what to do: find "system.ini" in windows folder; right click; properties; disable the 'read only' option; ok
