    I tried that screensaver trick a few years ago in XP. I tried it again today in 7. It crapped out my system the same way both times, but today I did not have to reboot.

    Reminds me of Crocodile Dundee turning on the TV and seeing "I Love Lucy" and saying, "Yeah, that's what I saw..."

    just open a command prompt and paste in "mystify.scr /p65552" without the speach-marks.
    you don't even need that app.
    Just tried this way again and it seems not to work for both screen (if you have daul screens)

    The app does do both

    That's because dual screen is a different code..

    LOL!

    Plugged in another monitor just to try this, its now deffo this one, "mystify.scr /p65802".. tried and tested. :)

    the code above that didn't work was found by me creating an app that sent the command-line to the titlebar on it when it ran. I then renamed the app to .scr and ran it from the app you linked to to get the codes it was sending lol!
    The app must detect how many monitors and then sends different codes depending.
