Thanks to this forum I was able to find out why my screensaver would never start because of my wireless mouse. I updated and downloaded the patch and it started to work instantly. But later that same night after running a handful of other applications it stopped working and the screensaver won't start. I can go and preview it but it won't start once I am idle. I know that this is a ridiculus issue but my wife loves to see all our family photos as the screensaver. Can someone help? Thank you.

If you search the forums you'll find that if you use a microsoft wireless mouse that the screensaver won't work. Microsoft put out a patch to fix it and even when I installed it, it works at first, but then stops working after a couple of applications have been used. Can someone help?

Not true of all wireless mice - I have a Microsoft wireless mouse without the patch (manually installed, anyway, I am not sure if it may have automatically installed as a Windows Update) and it goes into sleep mode very easily - easier, in fact, than my main computer.
So, what mouse do you have?

I have got the same problem with Microsoft wireless mouse. When I remove wireless mouse, the screensaver worked just fine but stopped working again when I put the mouse back. I have tried several times and now I know that the mouse is the problem.
Any advice hot to download the patch or anything to fix this problem so I can use wireless mouse again.
Thanks

Hello,
You need an optional update called " HID Non-User Input Data Filter ".
You probably cannot find it in Windows updates anymore. If so, google Intellipoint software, install it, then go look for the optional update.
