I re-booted to be sure they worked (I quit WorldCommunityGrid on this machine because they stopped working). Now, at home, I boot up, no screensavers. Any constructive advice? >>RSM ID: 10412 ·

THere is a workaround, but it's slightly less secure than running under a user account I believe: Computer Management > Services > BOINC > Properties > Log-on > Local System Account + Let this service interact with desktop.

In fact, I think I started it. I can not get rid of the blinking. I have checked my video driver, virus scan, all the stuff one thinks of. Obviously, I am missing something. >>RSM ID: 10521 ·
