adding screen saver options

Not sure if this is the right place for this, if not please direct me
accordingly. I have made a screen saver, and it has some options. How
do I get those options to be available from the Windows screensaver
properties Window?
thanks

Does anyone know if there is a problem with re-enabling the Screen Saver after it has been disabled programmatically. I am using the SystemParametersInfo function within User32.dll, and have been successful in disabling the Screen Saver, but it does not work for re-enabling. The only way I can re-activate it is to re-apply the settings through the Display properties in the Control Panel. Sample lines of code, in simplest form:

Hi, Our software runs on a XP system attached to a touch screen monitor and smartcard USB reader. We run our own simple corporate screen saver. When the screen is touched the screen saver vanishes, but when a user inserts a smartcard (we're polling for inserts) the screen saver doesn't vanish. Is there any way we can awaken the system and stop the screen saver from code please?
