Mala ScreenSaver Bug RC9 Fixed???
« on: July 03, 2007, 09:24:28 am »
Hey,  I've been hunting around and have seen that there is a bug with the Screensaver for MALA RC9.  Mine won't start....I've tried allot of different thing and am certain that it isn't a stupid oversight likethe wrong directory or something.  Has this bug been fixed or is there a work around that anyone knows of.  I have searched the WIKI and many posts here and can't find a solution. 

One weird thing is that I have another PC running Win 2000 instead of XP and the screensaver works on that one.

If anyone has solved this one please help.
Thanks ???

What screensaver mode are you running?  pics or videos?  I have issues with the video screensaver, but the pics seem fine to me.

I had this happen only once...  Try creating another user on your XP box and run it under that

Sorry to say it but I buckled and settled for the Windows Slideshow Screensaver Deal,  It works fine and has some cool transition effects,  I hate anything windows, especially going outside my FE MALA,  The only thing is I just get paranoid that I'm gonna get burn-in if I go upstairs and get distracted for a few hours,  Atleast now  I can leave it on all the time and not worry,  Just wondering if the Windows SLideshow is taking up allot or more system resources than the MALA one would?
