No Screensaver with Wireless Mouse.

I replaced my wired mouse with a wireless and ever since my screensaver function won't work. I've changed a lot of the values in PROPERTIES but sill no luck. Thanks.

Did you happen to install any mouse drivers? I found that those can stop the screen saver.

Sadly I can't find the make and model to see if they had an update.

This cheap nameless Chinese mouse was simple plug and play. No drivers installed. Thanks.
