This file is approximately 354 Kb in size and is called "scrmsvrinstall.exe". Please make sure the whole file is downloaded or it will not work properly.

2. Installing ScreamSaver
When the file ("scrmsvrinstall.exe") has been downloaded then you should run it (by double-clicking it in Windows Explorer).

Follow the instructions carefully. Please use the default settings unless you have a particular reason not to. To use the default settings keep pressing "Next". Please write down the name of the directory where you have installed ScreamSaver if you choose another directory than the default one.

If you have any difficulties in installing ScreamSaver make sure that you have not got any other programs running at the same time. Some programs such as virus checkers and most often Microsoft Office and Lotus Smart Centre can cause installation problems and must be shut down before installation. If you are told that there is a conflicting application running you need to close them down first.

3. Run ScreamSaver:
Run ScreamSaver in the same way that you would run any other program:

Press the START button, select PROGRAMS, select the ScreamSaver group and select the ScreamSaver icon. We recommend that you change the settings to suit your way of working.

The ScreamSaver screen will appear at regular intervals. It will not do anything until the specified time is up when it will reappear to prompt you to take a break. If you want you can change the settings by using the settings button. Read the help file for more information by pressing the "F1" button at any time.

If you find that ScreamSaver interrupts you too often or too harshly, please change the settings to suit yourself and your own work pattern. ScreamSaver can take a little getting used to, but you will appreciate it quickly.

This evaluation version will work for 30 days after which you must buy a licence to continue using it. When you purchase a licence, we will send you the password which will allow ScreamSaver to continue working.

4. Install the ScreamSaver screen saver
Install the ScreamSaver screen saver which is installed at the same time as ScreamSaver. You do not need to use this but it will allow you to make best use of ScreamSaver. Please read the help file for installation details.
