I see that when I right click on the desktop, I have the Theme and Desktop
set to the same background - this seems strange as they are the same
thing -no?
Then, when I do the screensaver, I really don't want one - I want the
Theme/Desktop just to remain there when I leave the computer.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Presto, you won't start a screensaver.

I have selected none in the screen saver but the screen turns black when I
am not working for ten minutes or so - that is what I am trying to correct!

Turn off power saving to the monitor. Display Properties, Screen Saver,
Power, "Turn off monitor", Never.
