[QUOTE="evilred92legend, post: 1175847, member: 189429"] Referring to a Macbook Pro, 13.3", running 10.6.6, 2.4Ghz Processor, 4GB ram. Started noticing an issue with the screensaver the other day. Screensaver comes on as scheduled, displays for about a minute, then quits and returns to the desktop. If you leave it alone it will repeat this cycle as scheduled. I cleared my caches, and deleted the only recently installed program, Caffeine, which I thought might be causing the issue. No change. Messed around with a couple settings in system preferences and chose "Test." As when it comes on as scheduled, the screensaver quit after about a minute, and I was greeted with an error message, "System Preferences has quit unexpectedly." Any troubleshooting advice would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
