Default Customize Screen Saver in Windows Vista

I want to customize my screen saver in windows Vista. I want to use something
other than pictures like a video type of screen saver that I downloaded from
a business.
Does anyone have a clue as to how I can do this?
It was easy with earlier versions of windows even XP.
Thanks for any help!

Summary of instructions:
You can create a personalized screen saver by displaying selected pictures
and videos as a slide show when you are not actively using your computer.

1. Open Screen Saver Settings by clicking the Start button, clicking
Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, clicking
Personalization, and then clicking Screen Saver.

2. Click the Screen saver list, and then click Photos.

3. If you want to specify a location for the pictures you want to use in
your screen saver or modify the slide show speed, click Settings. After you
make your changes, click Save.

4. Click OK.
