XP "Display Properties", "Screeen Saver" tab won't keep selection. Defaults to &
I'm running on XP Pro with SP2, Nvidia GEForce4 graphics and the screen saver works fine using "Preview", but then when I apply my settings, close the Display Properties, then re-open Display Properties-Screen Saver, it shows "None" for the selected screen saver. I don't have this problem with other screen savers I have loaded on my system. Tried several times.
In summary, my screen saver setting for MA2 refuses to "stick". I've uninstalled, reinstalled several times with the same result. |

If there are spaces in the filename, try taking them out. This worked for me a while ago when I had the same problem.

Yes, you'll need to rename, for instance:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Marine Aquarium Time 2.scr to C:\WINDOWS\System32\MarineAquariumTime2.scr
