Thank you in advance.

Where are you getting them from?
If off of your old XP computer they should work fine.
If off the web I would be concerned about viruses, trojans, etc.
The URL that you posted immediately goes to a Flash screen.
VirusTotal does not seem able to analyze it.
That is a bad sign. I would never click on the flash arrow.

They're the same ones I used in Windows XP Pro SP3 machines.

I have XP3 on a separate hdd and just tried all the old *scr files from their
original XP3/win/sys32 position. They all worked except for the ones requiring 3D.
Those I moved to 7/win/sys32 and they worked just fine.
I don't use a screen saver any more. Instead I set the monitor to sleep
after 15 min of non-use.
