How Do I Add a Screensaver to My Menu?
Your computer comes pre-installed with certain screensavers on it, but you can also download screensavers for free online from a variety of websites. If you like to change your screensaver often, then it might benefit you to add screensavers to your Start menu so that you can easily set them as your default screensaver. That way you don't have to go through "My Computer" and the "Display Properties" window every time you want to change your screensaver.
