Don't save it the picture to system32..... The end user won't have access.<br />

Drop it in Program Data. That should work, have you stipulated where the picture is located for the screensaver?

Thank you mister Mahesh you helped us a lot. We had to copy inside syswow64 as systems are 64bit. Hopefully everything will work fine when tomorrow people login again :)

Why is 'PhotoScreensaver.scr' in other workstations (domain) opening as blank (black)? I've set picture screensaver (containing one picture) on one workstation and copied 'PhotoScreensaver.scr' to a network share. In domain controller (Windows Server 2008) I've created new GPO: 1. at logon copy 'PhotoScreensaver.scr' from network share to %systemroot%\system32; 2. enable: Screen Saver, Screen Saver executable name (PhotoScreensaver.scr), Password protect the screen saver, Screen Saver timeout.
