You cannot use the screen saver *screensaver name* on this computer. Contact the developer of this software for a newer version.

i get that warning every time i try to use any screen saver on macbook pro... my friend who is running the same level OSX (10.4.11) on his desktop has no issue whatsoever...

any ideas or suggestions?

Is that with regards to an Apple screen saver or a third party one you've downloaded?
