I have my desktop wallpaper set to: solid color > black, yet my screensaver looks like this...
This is a clean install of Win 10 Home (about a week old), and the latest Nvidia driver... 445.87
Windows version: 10.0.18363.836 (Win10 19H2 [1909] November 2019 Update)
Hi just curious if you set it to a picture does it work right or is it just when you set it to a solid color
Same issue with picture. Also, I forgot about this... used the motherboard driver DVD to install the drivers. Installed all of them, but I get this in Device Manager...
Don't know if it's related??
I don't see any driver at manufacturer's website that's related.
Hmmm... I just tried the screensaver: mystify, and IT doesn't seem to have this issue.

Well it seems that this is an issue with the ASUS chipset driver vs. the AMD chipset driver.
Solution was/is here: PCI Encryption/Decryption Controller
Waiting for 2nd level tech support call from ASUS about the PCI Encryption/Decryption Controller issue.
Still have the screensaver issue though.
Looks like "Bubbles", but it's not dancing like they used to. Please see this article: How to customize the Bubbles, Ribbons, and Mystify screen savers for Windows 10 - TechRepublic
Well, they're not dancing like they used to, because it's a picture not a video. :)
BUT... although I couldn't get the TechRepublic info to work, it did help me find the solution at WinAero, here...
Customize screen savers in Windows 10 using secret hidden options
I'll give you half a rep... j/k. :)
/e I still can't get the "transparent" setting to work. Instead of showing w/e windows I have open, with the bubbles on top, it shows that weird grey-ish screen in the original pic. But I only wanted the "black" background to work, like it did in Windows 7.
Ok... you get a full rep.
