Got a program named dreamity, or something like that...didint work. made a screensaver, installed it but nothing happened. So I uninstalled the program but the screensaver is still there, how do I remove it? Anyone know one that does work? I really dont like to DL strange programs.
EDIT: theres a file of that screensaver in my system32 folder. But since theres probly more to it than just deleting the file i left it there. Last edited by ghost2003; 02-12-2004 at 03:07 PM. |

To be honest, although I've been reading this and several other forums for quite a while, I don't recall seeing a request for information about software to turn movies into screensavers. So it looks like you might get to be the one to download and try out a few and then recommend the best. After all, somebody's gotta' do it.
 Generally, removing the ".scr" file gets rid of the entire screensaver. |

screensaver builder SUXS!!!!!!!!!!
Thing screwed up my computer!!! Not only that, it did not work. Let me explain...First of all, at the end of the first video it would just stop, it would not go to the next one nor loop when there was only one(having a still picture kind of defeats the purpus of screensaver). I told it to stop when I moved my mose...it did not do that, needed to press esc. So I uninstalled it but befor I made a executable installer for my screensaver to see if that would work, same thing. Only differance is it took off my wallpaper and would not let me put it back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 needed to do a system restore(good thing I made one just before installing). Now im mad!

I think you should try a software that produces screen savers called Xara
