I used to be able to click a shortcut to activate my
screensaver - can't seem to figure this out with XP. How
do you activate without going to display or waiting for
the time frame to elapse?

Thanks,
Bob

Bob,

Create a shortcut for the screensaver, on the Desktop and double-click =
it.

Right-click Desktop, New Shortcut.
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\ssmyst.scr" [example]
