all you can do is set it to one minute. but if it is workstation, all you have to do is lock workstation when you go on your coffee break (hit ctrl-alt-del) choose lock workstation. cuz you’re workstation is auto locked when screen save appears.or intall after dark program (which messes up the os) and move the mouse to the right hand corner of the monitor.

Activate Screen Saver from an Icon
1.Open HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CurrentVersion\Wimdows
2.Select the program value and then choose String from edit menu
3.Add the SCR extension to the string as follows:Program: REG_SZ: EXE COM BAT PIF CMD SCR.
Click OK,close the registr editor and log off
Log back on and,from Windows Explorer,highlight the screen saver you want and righ-click to define a shortcut
ex.\winnt\system32\ssbezier.scr /s
The /s switch forces the screen saver to start immediately. Remove /s to display a setup screen. Screen savers that use passwords can be used,but the password security is not used

Go into the Windows/system directory and find one of the screen savers. Create a shorcut to it and place it in your startup folder. This is the easiest way I have found, to do this.
