Schedule A Screen Saver?

I have a school information system running on a couple of XP workstations
connected to large plasma screen, is it possible to schedule a screen saver,
to come off and on at certain times during the day?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Like an ordinary program (extension: exe)
a screen saver (extension: scr) can be scheduled.

You can find them most of the time under \windows\system32

I presume that you know how to use the task scheduler.

When prompted which program to schedule.
Enter \windows\system32\*.scr

Spot on, Thank Crest.

I have now scheduled the rss screen saver to run, during lesson times and to
stop during break times.

Thank you.
