graphic display bug?????

(1/2) > >>

jdonzae:
I know this issue has been addressed already but not in the context of my misfortune (i think i said that right). I'm running Vista on my lap-top and I'm always getting this rather frustrating blank/transparent workspace whenever i run an8. And the few times I get lucky, the work space is doubled (one in the top left, and one in the bottom right). the functions are on the bottom right and the things i try to do get shown in the top left workspace. I've tried playing with the settings, and that didn't work. Updating my graphics card didn't work. I've also tried it on a few other vista computers and got the same effect. Is there any other solution to this vista epidemic because all of the windows XP updates aren't available anymore on the microsoft website????

jdonzae:
okay i think i get it, but where am i supposed to get the file from???? the supported links send me to somewhere else. (remember i AM running on dial up and its torture waiting for a file that takes a year to download and its not what i want)

Steve:
jdonzae, what graphics chip do you have? Use the About->SystemInfo menu command in Anim8or to see.  Have you tried running in XP Compatible mode?  (Have you read the Vista Problems page?)

atioglxx.dll is ATI's OpenGL driver.  If you don't have an ATI card it won't do anything for you.

jdonzae:
I have the standard graphics card that came with this stupid Dell (Intel 965 Graphics Media Accelerator), but since it's XP compatible (which is the only reason I bought it), I'll just roll back to XP Sp3 for now.
