Jan: I have something similar. The dark screen with the windows logo floating around is the standby. I have that at the point of my signing in before my settings are opened. I have XP Pro, but I wouldnt imagine Home is much difference there. If you are wanting a screensaver, to keep your work secret you need to go to Control Panel and Display in the usual way, and make sure you select the sleep time to your requirement.
I have to admit, it is confusing. Hope this helps.
