On resume, display logon screen does not occur

I'm using Vista Ultimate OS on a new Dell workstation. I have set the screen
saver to turn on after 5 minutes and have checked "On resume, display logon
screen", however it does not function. I'm the only user established on the
PC. Any ideas?

Hi Doug,

See if this applies:

The screen saver does not work when you use a Microsoft wireless pointing device on a Windows Vista-based computer:

The screen saver does not start after you install a wireless pointing device:
