My Screensaver by Haris
When I'm having my screen saver on I get a problem. This happens with the most of the screen savers I have like "The 60's USA, Science, Jungle" and more. When I touch my mouse and the screen saver is on, then my computer restarts by it self. Why is it so?

PnP is erratic by Harri85274
I have a plugh and play video tuner external and when I try to install it, I don't get the usual windows recognizing it. I have to go to control panel and add hardware. The bios has pnp enabled. Why would it work on some and not others even if they are pnp units?
