Observation: Screensaver causes system to hang after MSO 2003 inst

Posted: 07-18-2006, 09:01 AM
General observation :-
I've been running a fresh Vista beta2 build with nothing but AntiVirus
installed for about a week - surfing the net and generally setting up users
and applying very basic personal settings - and Vista has held up very well
without any visible error. However, after installing MS Office 2003 and
applying SP2 the screensaver (floating text, set to time & wobble) will now
hang the system if left alone for about to an hour. To get it back press
Ctrl-Alt-Del to force the screen to change, then press the cancel option to
go back to the Desktop. This has got things back to normal thus far, but I
haven't left it for more than an hour yet.

* Is there a specific feedback area for testing? Haven't found one, but also
haven't looked very hard either.
