Disabling Screen Saver

How do I disable the screen saver that comes on at the welcome screen. It's the one with the Windows logo that jumps all over the screen. I can't seem to find a setting anywhere but I might just be blind.

That didn't quite tell me how to disable it, just how to change it, but I needed that too. I just though it would be in the same place so I didn't ask.

I found how to totally disable it here.
