Finally the screen saver is working under Vista !!!
Microsoft released today HID - Non-User Input Data Filter as part of the windows update service ... I've just updated my Vista machine and boom.... the Screen saver started to work !!!
Well it is about time... It took Microsoft 3 Months to fix this bug ! way way way too long !
You have no idea how joy it is to someone to finally been able to see his screen saver when his mouse stays connected to his laptop ! (Until today I had to disconnect the mouse whenever I left the comp running or start the screen saver manually)
If you own a Microsoft Mice specially the 6000 series Mice's update your Vista machine and install the 'Microsoft - Other Hardware - HID Non-User Input Data Filter'
Note this is an optional update !
