Sunking, you must have a pretty slow system if the 3D screensavers that came with windows uses 100% of the CPU.

My system is not a SLOW system, but its not the fastest either (check my signature). The Aquarium uses 99% CPU while the windows 3D SS use from roughly 10% ~ 60%. One was at the 10% mark (non-3D), one was at the 60% mark (3D text/time), and the rest were all about 53%, pipes, flowerbox, and so on.

BUT, I don't think the Windows SS require a 3D card, or even if a 3D card helps with those.
