    My computer won't go idle...the screen saver won't come on. Even though I set it one 1 minute.

    I have seem to have found the problem after much testing. The problem lies with my Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000. If I use the touch pad on the laptop and leave it idle for the a minute the screensaver turns on, but with the mouse it doesn't work! Does anyone know how to fix this? I already tried updating the driver, that didn't work
