Can anybody explain what's the meaning of:
[error] einstein_S5R2 not responding to screensaver, requesting exit
[error] einstein_S5R2 not responding to screensaver, killing it

My screensaver was fine just yesteday and now these messages appear and no screensaver, just a frozen screen with the Einstein logo...

[error] einstein_S5R2

Seeing that you are only returning errors, and have been doing so for a while now, perhaps it is wise to run without a screen saver.

Or else update your graphics driver/DirectX version.

Exit code -1073741819 (0xC0000005): This is the famous "General Access Violation". There a numerous reasons for this error to occur, from hardware problems to graphics drivers and more. Ideally when this happens, the "Windows Runtime Debugger" should start up and write a stack dump to stderr out that helps to further diagnose the problem. If the "Access Violation" is listed in the "*** Dump of the Graphics thread ***", it was almost certainly a problem with the graphics driver. The most common cause for an Access Violation listed in the "*** Dump of the Worker thread ***" shows "houghmap.c:" near the end of the first line of the Callstack. This is a problem that we might be able to do something about, we are currently hunting this. Apparently it only happens on certain machines, it might be related to the data these hosts are processing, but may also be a property of the hardware or other software on the system.
