Guest someone Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 After some inactivity on my Windows XP Pro, instead of the screen saver, I get a dark screen, with the message: "Could not find Macromedia Flash." OK. For some reason, I didn't have it any more. Maybe SP3. So I downloaded it, but I still get the same message.

If no results, click Remove. It should be reinstalled as needed; a damaged component is doing you no good. -- Joe =o)
