| | RE: Vista screensaver wont start computer wont sleep either I just bought a new Dell with Vista and noticed my screen saver did not work. After reading some of this group's posts, I disconnected the Microsoft wireless mouse I was using and then tested the screen saver- it worked. Then I connected a Logitech wireless mouse that I use on my laptop and then tested the screen saver. With the Logitech wireless mouse the screen saver works fine.
