Vista Photo Screensaver - Vista Business

Hi,
I just got a new Lenovo T400 notebook with Vista Business. When setting my photos screensaver, I don't have the option for Themes. Also, the photos don't stretch to the full screen size. They leave an inch or so of black screen on each side of the screen.

Is this a Vista Business issue? From reading threads on the internet, it sounds like people w/ Vista Home might not have this issue?

Is there any workaround or fix that I can use to fix this? Or is it an unrelated issue?

Thanks,
Dan

Hi chex77,

You could try taking a look at Live Photo Gallery which is a bit more advanced than the Original Vista Version

It's available at the Live essentials Site ...

Essentials - Windows Live

Note of all the other offerings available the Beta of Movie maker is very basic, but the rest are good apps :D

Thanks Barman.

I'm actually more interested in the photo screensaver functionality than the photo gallery features (although I haven't played around with those yet so maybe i'll find them lacking also).

My issue w/ the photo screensaver is it seems like the Business version of Vista is scaled down when compared to the photo screensaver functionality of the Home version of Vista.

Hi,

The reason I suggested you take a look is that it should replace the standard photo screen saver functions with it's own more advanced version. and it includes various themes.

Hopefully it works the same way with the business version too
