Of course...it's Friday afternoon and my mind is mush. Anyway after creating test.scr I try to have Windows use it as the screen saver but it always gives the following error:

"File test.scr does not exist"

I've copied it into the Windows\System32 folder where all other scr's are and right clicked the test.scr then selected install. If I go to the Screen Saver tab of the Display Properties dialog, test does not appear in the dropdown list.

What am I doing wrong?

TIA
