Well, it was good while it lasted.
The past three days have been back to the ol' blank screen....

Hooray!

Thanks, both of you!
The weekly Tuesday maintenance thing is good info to know, but wasn't really pertinent to my issue since I'd mentioned that this has been going on for weeks.

(Seems like it's been a lot longer than just two weeks, too. More like 4 or 5 weeks or more? Can't remember. I don't really pay much attention to my screen saver but gradually became aware that something was not right. So, I can't really say how long it's been, but I feel it's been quite a bit longer than two weeks....)

Anyway, thanks again for the info! I'll check that site out.

Is there something going on with SETI functionality on BOINC? My screen saver has not been working for weeks. And I've not touched any settings or made any changes to my computer. It just keeps running a black screen with some generic BOINC message, not the SETI program itself. When I open BOINC Manager and try to view my account or preferences it just says "This page requires database access. Our database server is temporarily shut down for maintenance. Please try again later." What's going on? (And P.S. I'm not a "new member" as noted by my ID. I'd just never gotten around to setting up a forum account before. I've been a SETI@home / BOINC user for years and years).
