Running screen saver
Does running a screen saver use too much memory? At work
our computer person told us not to use screen savers. We are running 8 computers on a network. Currently we only use about a quarter of our disk space on each computer. |

Running screen saver
Hi,
Any usual screensaver does not take up too much hard disk space or memory. Screensavers are designed to protect the monitor screen while they are not being used for a prolonged period, and hence it is recommended to use one. -- Anando Microsoft MVP- Windows Shell/User http://www.microsoft.com/mvp http://www.mvps.org Folder customizations http://newdelhi.sancharnet.in/minku Protect your PC! http://www.microsoft.com/protect "Dot" wrote in message ...

Running screen saver
I use the Mars Rovers scr from NASA alternating with a "live" aquarium
scr... no problems with memory usage. I wouldn't worry, unless you were maxxed out for disc/memory space. "Dot" wrote in message ... Does running a screen saver use too much memory?
