Hi ppl!

When I move icons on my WinXP-system they look like they have been raped by an alien. =((( Look at the image below:

Any1 know why it's like this?

My spec:

Asus K7V MOBO
Amd Athlon 750
ASUS Geforce 1, V6800 Deluxe
768 Mb RAM
and some other stufs that should not interfer with this...

I installed XP first. Then latest VIA-drvers for XP. Then latest DetonatorXO drivers and after that aeverything else.

Thanx in advance folks!

Det. 29.42s, Wierd.

I saw something similar on crappy SIS graphics chips (is there a decent one???) It was caused by something to do with RAMDAC i believe. So logic dictates:

you are going to have a nice new VGA card and all the goodies that comes with it. unless you like it this way.

Nah... I don't belive in that... Must be software related... Would happen on 2k also otherwise... On my borthers computer there is a similar problem. The text to the icon jumps sideways when grabing it and draging it... Strange ****. But hey... MS is strange ****! Best viewd and used after some pot!

Nothing like that... Only DetonatorXP drivers...

M$ a few months back released a GUI patch ... have a look on windows update for it. I have never had any problems graphically except for one really annoying one in word where scrolling used to mirror the text . I think upgrading to new dets (28.32) solved it.

Try turning off some of the visual effects.
