Screen Saver May Not Start in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;326719
Troubleshooting Screen Saver Issues in XP http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_s.htm#ss
Posting from another user by the name of David:
”I figured out what the problem is. It's the Microsoft Wireless Mouse. If I switch the mouse to one with a tail the screensaver works.”
then David posted again
”I got a fix. I changed to connection to the computer using the USB to PS2 adapter that came with the mouse. Now I get the screensaver. I would be interested to find out why this works.”
Another checkpoint - make sure that a program is not causing the computer to remain active. You may have a program running in the background that springs into life when the computer is idle.
