Hi Guys,

Having added @seti again ( i remembered they had a cool screensaver whilst crunching) i set my screensaver on to Boinc but don't see the lovely seti screensaver appear.. is it broken? do i need to set a setting somewhere for it to work properly?

Best wishes UBT - Glenn (thanks Tim ;)

Hi Glenn

Assuming you are using WIndows, then it might be that the screensaver only comes on after an extended period of time - maybe 10 or 20 mins after "inactivity".

So, check your Display > Screensaver properties and see what the settings are?

regards
Tim

PS No worries on the forum username mod :-)
