Hi, folks: These are how I do w/ my winXP sp2: open task mgr first. Start> control panel>display>open>screen saver>preview. Then check task manager processes, you will see the info you require. Good luck.

I don't use screensavers and I could never find one I would use : a screensaver with a simple digital 24-clock (without malware of course).

But the digital mode looks like our pc has been programmed to explode coz it looks like a timing device for a bomb. :o :D :wacko:

Hi,folks: Ram and cpu consumptions are often tricky parts when selecting a good one, also malware concern is a major worry too. Most pcs come with built-in free screen savers, which I believe they are very safe. If you ever contemplate trying a paid screensaver, I highly recommend this one: SereneScreen Marine Aquarium v.2.6 , low cpu and 13,860 k ram(toleratable ?) Very quite and picture is very crystally clear. I do enjoy watching those tropical species swimming back and forth.
