Customize the Screensaver in Windows

Windows XP comes with a customizable screensaver that you can use to personalize your monitor when the computer is not in use. To change your screensaver, click the Start button and click Control Panel. There are two ways to view the Control Panel – Category and Classic.

In Category view, click the Appearance and Themes topic, then click the Choose a Screensaver option. The Display Properties dialog opens. In Classic View, click the Display icon, then click the Screensaver tab in the Display Properties dialog box.

Click the list arrow under Screensaver and choose 3D Text from the list. Click the Settings button to open the 3D Text Settings dialog box. There you can enter your own custom text, change the font, and add rotation, motion, resolution, and other effects to the text.
