    Cool Set Screen Saver In registry

    Hi!

    How can I change the screen saver timeout (ScreenSaveTimeOut) in registry (win 2000).
    When I change the value, in the control panel the value stays unchanged (??), and when I change the value in control panel the value in registry Changes(??)

    Also Anyone knows where can I change the ScreenSaver (Win 98)?

    Thanks

    Have you tried changing the following registry value
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\ScreenSaveTimeOut

    The value is to be set in seconds.

    Screen Saver time!

    Yes, but when I open the Display Properties, the value stays unchanged (??).

    I Guess that there is other value to change in registry, but I don't know were.

    If you reboot the system, the value gets changed.
