I run this code from the startup folder in XP when I login to windows XP.

Code:
set-ItemProperty -path "hkcu\Software\Policies\Microsoft\windows\Control Panel\Desktop" -name "ScreenSaveTimeOut" -value 48888
exit

I am trying to set the timeout of my screen saver, but the change does not take.

I can do this via the MMC (GUI).
I wonder if it is an "apply" thing?

Anyone?
