I have written a screensaver.  I've named it test.scr.  I want to select it
as the screensaver in Windows XP.  I've copied it to \windows\system32.
When I pop up the properties box of the desktop and select the screen saver
tab it does not appear in the dropdown list box.  Is there something else
that needs to be done to make it selectable?  Do I need to register it with
Windows somehow?

Thanks!

Forgive me.  It seems to be as simple as rebooting.
