screen saver

I just got the VISTA and new computer; I can't get the screen saver to come
on.
I've gone into the 'personalization setting' and applied the minutes and
shut down
for the screen saver and auto shut down and nothing happens. My home page
remains
on. Any suggestions? Please tell me that it's something 'simple' to change!

Re: screen saver

Is this relevant?

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