Help, no matter how little of a delay I have, my screen saver NEVER turns on.

By the way this is not a performance and maintenance issue. It would be better posted in the general newsgroup. -- Rock [MS-MVP User/Shell] |

you might check the event logs to see if it says anything about this problem.

Microsoft - Other Hardware - HID Non-User Input Data Filter Installation date: ‎06/‎02/‎2007 10:57 Installation status: Successful Update type: Optional Microsoft Other Hardware software update released in January, 2007 More information: http://winqual.microsoft.com/support/?driverid=20031770 More information: http://support.microsoft.com/select/?target=hub If you do not see the update in the list of possibles, try uninstalling DreamScene, and then revisit WU.. as weird as it seems, the update reappeared.. it worked for one person for sure.. he didn't re-apply DreamScene, but I suspect that one could having gotten the 'wireless receiver fix..

So, does this update fix the problem with a wireless mouse? and can you be
more specific where to find that update? When I click on the URL links, I just go to an information page that tells what drivers are, nothing about updates.
