Turn on the bubbles screensaver and apply then reboot and turn it off, that
should stay with no screensaver.

i changed it to bubbles and rebooted and it kept the change but when i turned
off bubbles it turned the windows logo screensaver back on. arg this is the
only issue i've had with vista not a big deal at all but it's driving me nuts

yah I'm having the exact same issue and it is extremely obnoxious. is
this patch necessary or can i uninstall it? not sure if the bubbles
thing will work, i'll have to try it.
