SUMMARY
=======

Microsoft Scenes does not activate when the MS-DOS Prompt or another MS-DOS
based application is the active window. The screen saver does not activate
automatically, nor does it activate when you press the hot key combination
CTRL+SHIFT+S.

Scenes does activate if the MS-DOS Prompt or another MS-DOS-based application is
minimized (even if it is the active icon).

Additional query words: msscenes screen saver screensaver
