Screen Saver stopped working

I have Windows XP Pro, All of a sudden I am noticing my screen saver from windows, (nothing special) just stopped working. get up in the am and the desktop is showing. I had it set for 10 minutes of inactivity the screen saver would start.
Any ideas what to look for? 2 weeks ago I added a 1 TB external hard drive that has been the only changes. That installation went smooth.

Thanks
Steve

If you unplug the new drive does the problem go away?
