    Hi all,

    I have a need to make a screensaver out of the built-in Windows XP clock. The timw must be accurate so I really can't go with a downloadable screensaver. Is what I want to do possible, simply make a screensaver out of the built-in XP clock? If so, how? Thanks!!!

    Chris

    Thanks, but I think I made it clear I need to create a screensaver out of the built-in XP clock, not use something else.

    OK, from what I found I didn't think so, and you're reinforcing that. Erf, oh well. Thanks!

    How to set your local clock as an (Alarm) Clock Screen Saver?
    http://www.etn.nl/screensavers/clock/
    (3rd party application)

    You could probably make your own using html desktop wallpaper that contains a script to display the local time.
