Microsoft Plus! Was an add-on package to Windows that added desktop themes, screen savers, sound effects, power-toys, and other assorted goodies for the home user. 3) From here, an additional step you have to take if you want to use each separately as regular screensavers in XP:In addition to the.scr and.dll file for each screen saver, you also need the following two files (from the Windows 95 Plus! Pack or Windows 98). 6) You now have the underwater screensaver offered by Win Plus on Winnt.
WINDOWS 98 PLUS SCREENSAVERS UPDATE
If I ever find a solution, I'll be sure to update this post.Ī "magnifying lens" Screensaver (like the 60s USA from the old PLUS! CD) that works on 64bit Windows would be so great.Download hundreds of free screensavers for Windows PC! You will find all popular screensavers categories: 3D, Nature, Holidays, Animated, Animals, etc. I had it working at one point, but the magnifying lens would bounce around the screen way too fast, and it would always end up crashing.Īpart from a few classics like Mystify, Starfield and Flying Windows, it seems that none of the screensavers from the Windows 98 CD can be made to work on Windows 10. I found another version on a Windows 98 CD, but I'm afraid it's just not going to work well on Windows 10. I'll tinker with it a little more, and will post an update soon. I pulled it from the Windows 95 Plus! collection, so it's a little bit older still than the Science Fiction screensaver.

I do know that one, and I think I have the screensaver file, but I haven't been able to get it to work on Windows 10 just yet. Rob, do you happen to have the Plus! (I think) of the one called Science? It is a magnifying orb that floats over your screen.
WINDOWS 98 PLUS SCREENSAVERS SERIES
There are a couple more from the same series that I'll be adding to the site soon. Rob! You are AWESOME!! It's just like I remember! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
However, one computer where I tested it on had to have hardware acceleration disabled for the screensaver to work. To improve the quality of the graphics, you may need to enter the Settings menu for the screensaver, toggle on "Use Hardware Acceleration", and select the highest resolution where it says Display Mode. The screensaver will then automatically be installed, and the Screen Saver Settings panel should open. When you open it, simply click "Install".
WINDOWS 98 PLUS SCREENSAVERS DOWNLOAD
Please download this installation file I created for the screensaver. I tested it to work on Windows 10 64-bit, but I'm still figuring out the best way to distribute it to you. Thanks, Rob! I have already downloaded and enjoyed the "pipes" screensaver !! (which I believe is from Windows 98)įound it for you, Celeste! It's part of the Organic Art screensaver created in the late 90s by a company called Computer Artworks. I will see if I can find the group of screensavers from the 98 Plus! package. However, if you're really keen on getting this Science Fiction screensaver working again on your computer, our tutorial for getting Johnny Castaway working on Windows 64-bit can probably also be used to get any other 16-bit screensaver working. A 64-bit Windows will run 32-bit programs, but not 16-bit. Most screensavers created for Windows 95 and 98 are 16-bit programs, which may still work on modern versions of Windows, like 8 and 10, but only on 32-bit versions, not on 64-bit.
Update: I found the screensaver and it's working on Windows 64-bit. I'm sure that screensaver can be found somewhere on the Web, but I'm also pretty sure that it would not work on your computer running Windows 10 64-bit. I've tried searching everywhere for this! Anyone?Ĭeleste 4 years ago Windows 10 圆4, Firefox The background appears to be a desert planet or something. WHERE can I find a free download of the 98 Plus! screensaver called science fiction? It's the one with 4 orange objects floating and morphing into each other. Windows 98 Plus! science fiction screensaver
