using photos as screensavers

I have Vista and my photos when used as a screensaver will never turn off.
Windows screensavers will, but mine won't. I have Vista. I called the tech
and they couldn't get it to work either. I don't know if this is just
peculiar to Vista or what. It worked on my XP. The message I posted 2
hours ago was really a test with tech, so hopefully someone will read this
one and help. Thanks,

Not sure but you may be describing something I noticed recently. I
had been using no sceensaver and having the computer turn off the
monitor after 20 minutes. I made my photo's the screensaver and after
I did the monitor never powered down. Seems like the screensaver
activity prevented the power down function from occurring. Is this
the same problem you noticed and has anyone come up with a way to make
it power down.
