I don't think they have added any new screensavers yet, and do you really need one on by default?

well i had it on powersaver standard setting, i supposed it should power down the screen, and put it into sleep.

Btw, i had my music player going though, but still, it should have shut off the screen

My grandkids like the bubbles screensaver. They can't understand why I can't make it so they can pop them one at a time with the mouse curser.

Dude, I totally agree with them. That would be cool. Except how would the screen saver ever turn off? ;)

Could be -- if they don't let the CPU enter idle, the power options don't work.
