    Hey Guys,

    When I got my M1530, Vista had a screensaver on it that I liked. Kinda like Aurora but better; it was more animated. I removed Vista from my comp immediately but would kinda like this SS back. I'm running Win7 right now.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hmm... I tried DLing it but the tracker seems to be down and no hits on DHT. I'll leave it for a bit to see if it finds a seeder somehow. Thanks for the link!

    The "Aurora"?

    Screensavers on Windows are located in C://Windows/system32

    No it's not on my system which is why I'm looking for it. Definitely not Aurora but kinda like it in that it has these green, glowing beams that move around and stuff...

    If you're sure it's not Aurora, maybe you mean Windows Energy.

    Found it! It's called "branded", apparently. Filename: ssBranded.scr. Thanks everyone who helped!
