There are plenty, however, ive not tried running them under vista.
Try posting on the embarcadero forums - if anyones going to know people there will.

Did I just hear "You gotta help us, Doc. We've tried nothin' and we're all out of ideas" ? Is this you? Dont let this be you! I will put in as much effort as you seem to.

There's a lot more to screen savers than just renaming EXE to SCR.
See http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=6914 for an example.

Yep, screen savers have specific functions in such as the config screen etc. I know Ive written a few following various googled tutorials in the past, so have a google.
