I am looking for some suggestions on how to get the screensaver to work on my Dell Inspiron 7000 laptop running Windows XP. It has the ATI Rage LT Pro AGP 2X video card with 4MB. The problem I am having is when I try to run the screensaver the screen keeps flashing back and forth between the screensaver and the desktop. It goes to black and then back to the desktop and I have no way to stop it once this happens except to power down the machine manually.

I have tried changing the resolution to all different types and I have put it at high color 16-bit. I have disabled the antivirus program also but still with no luck.

The other strange thing is that the demo version that comes with Plus! for XP works fine, but the full version will not. Does anyone have any suggestions? I love the demo version and I really want to get the full version to work.

Thanks,
Jason
