Selecting a screen saver
Caution
If you are using a monitor (not a
flat-panel display), an image may get
burned in on your monitor screen if you
leave your computer on for long periods
of time without using it. You should use a
screen saver which constantly changes
its image to avoid this damage. Flat
panel displays cannot be damaged with
image burn-in.
You can use a screen saver to keep others from viewing your screen while you
are away from your computer. Windows supplies a variety of screen savers that
you can choose from, and many more are available from the Internet and as
commercial products.

Control Panel

your Control Panel is in Category View, click
Appearance and Themes
.
