Dreams don't resume after pausing

I know that dreams are supposed to pause during fullscreen and 3d games and etc. However, once they pause on my laptop they won't ever resume unless I go back in to the background selector and select another dream.

The same problem happens when my laptop goes into sleep mode.

In all cases when the dream is supposed to resume and doesn't, the cpu usage goes through the roof.

Dell e1705, 2ghz c2d, 2G ram, nvidia 7900, Dell activated ultimate 32bit, all windows updates, all available dell driver updates..

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

They're .dream files, but just looping animations. The one I use the most is Blue Push from the wincustomize gallery. (Kudos to the author, it's mellow, smooth, and not busy)

Thanks

Which version of DeskScapes are you running?

Does this issue consistently occur?

I am having the same problem. I use a screenscene aquarium screen saver and when I wake the computer from screen saver I have to go to backgrounds and select it again. I always get an error that says (Dreamscene can only run when Aero Desktop is running) or something like that. Is it a problem with the kind of screen saver I use? Is this a knowen issue? Does anyone have a resolution for this problem? Thanks

I know this has a lot to do with windows blinds 6, I have the same problem but Ive noticed when I unload windows blinds and use Aero the problem goes away. I have emailed stardock about this but Im waiting for a reply?
