Step2
Double-click on the Display icon (or on the word Display). This opens a window called Display Properties.

Click on the Screen Saver list box to view the screen savers that are currently installed on your computer. Select the one you want by clicking on it.
Step5
Click Settings to adjust factors such as the speed, size and color of the screen saver that you want to use.
Step6
Click the Preview button to view your new screen saver. If you are not satisfied, go back and change the settings or select a new screen saver from the list of those available.
Step7
Decide if you want to password-protect the screen saver or to set the amount of time that will elapse before the screen saver comes on, and enter those changes.
Step8
When you are satisfied, click OK.
Tips & Warnings
You can download free screen savers from the Internet. You can also find software that allows you to create your own custom-designed screen savers, or you can arrange with various businesses to custom-design your screen savers for you.
Screen savers require system resources and memory to run. If resources are scarce, it is a good idea to select simple screen savers instead of more elaborate ones. The more complex the screen saver, the more resources it requires.
