Would have been helpful if ednlible told us.

I did some 2min research and found this site Here . This "mod" doesnt really change the settings for the speed but it does allow you to tweak some other stuff for the bubbles screensaver. Just have a mess with some of the settings and see how things go from there. Sorry if this sounds vague but its all i can think up of right now - better than nothing i guess. M$ really does need to fix this, theyve nothing for ages now :(

    Wiggle the mouse, wake the computer up, and the next time the screen saver should be okay.  It's just a display artifact.

    I have this problem as well.  Any solutions yet?

    Hi, I have the same issue aswell. Didn't really notice it after I bought myself a new 24" screen to dual with my 20" screen. So I can't really say if this could have been the trigger, haven't bothered plugging either of them out and testing. In the end, its just a screensaver, but its still a bit anoying issue. You would expect more when its a screensaver thats a part of microsofts newest operating system.

    Hopes someone comes up with a fix :)
