Default Wireless mouse and screen saver

conflict.

Screensaver does not work with Microsoft Optical Desktop 1000 keyboard/mouse
USB connection. Unplug it and all is fine.

Google suggests using the USB/PS2 converter but the Desktop 1000 system was
not supplied with one.

anyone experience same and have a fix...........Microsoft
don't...........but should do,

When I tried microsoft wireless hardware I had nothing but trouble.
Switched to logitech and never had a hitch after. Microsoft should stick
to software.

OK I understand as I have a Logitech on my notebook and it is fine but I
cured the MS system using MS knowledge base 911895..........disabled the dvd
loader in msconfig/startup
