1: CUT THE CAPS
2: What has a screensaver got to do with games? Can you please post in the right place?
3: Most screensavers come with an uninstall option. Check either the Start menu, the Add/Remove Programs dialog in the Control Panel, or in the directory it was installed in.

If you can't find them, try re-installing the screensaver to get the uninstall options back

To recover, click start -> accessories-> system tools -> system restore . After that, just follow the instructions....

*** NOTE: Make sure that you choose the day before you uninstaled the screensaver ***

I've had this problem. Unless I'm mistaken it's caused by a poor uninstaller that leaves junk in c:\autoexec.bat

Open this file in notepad and tell us its contents. I will tell you which lines to remove.
