Well, there is a delay in the code, and it doesn't hog the system, so it must have to use some with all those 3d zooms and stuff.

It runs fine, but don't forget an elegant screen saver should save as much as possible cpu time.
My advise is to add a constant static delay value: Delay(16) after FlipBuffers() command. Even this will make your screensaver to go slow in pentium 100MHz machines :)
