When screen saver is selected, the screen begins to pixelate and then the screen goes blank with a "no input" message on screen. The computer still has power but will take no input. The power button must be held in to full shutdown the unit in order to restart and use the system again.I did find that I had a one to two second window to select another screen saver (antspotlite caused the original problem) and cleared the problem. Thanks for your time John
