Windows Vista screensavers in Windows 7

Two of my favorite screensavers in Vista (see left picture) can also run in Windows 7 without a problem: Aurora and Windows Energy. If you have a computer with Windows Vista installed all you have to do is to go to the C:\Windows\System32 directory and copy these two files: ssBranded.scr (7,949 KB) and Aurora.scr (1,339 KB) into the same location in the Windows 7 computer. Then right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose Personalize (the last menu choice) and then click on Screen Saver (at the bottom right corner). Choose Branded for "Windows Energy" or Aurora. If you don't have these two files hunt for them; you may find them in the Web.
