   Screen Saver (files) end with the [*.scr] extension, and are normally   
   located in your   
   [C:\WINDOWS\system32] folder.   
      
   To install (and automatically switch to) a new screen saver - download, or   
   locate, your screen saver file  ( e.g. "mysaver.scr" )  and, with your   
   mouse, "right-click" on the file - then choose "Install" from the menu....   
   done.
