Distorted graphics in "Preferences" & elsewhere by GeekK on 07-28-2004 at 08:21 PM

Hi, I have a peculiar problem with the graphics in MSN+:

[Image: msnp-distorted.png]

As you can see to the right, graphics of MSN+ are replaced by parts of the window of my active application, in this case: "Messenger Plus! Forums - Opera"!

E.g. the Language-choice & Character-set bars are replaced, as is the background on the lower left. The right section also has a border which consists of that graphic, and the two icons are replaced too...

Any idea why this might happen? *-)

The problem was reported before at http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=28311

Apparently, you are either low on memory resources, or updating your drivers should fix the problem

Took me like 10 minutes to find it, so I don't blame you

Go to http://nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp and try to download the latest drivers, it might help.

Yep, you're right, the notification mail contained a portion of your reply with the url you mentioned - I thought it was the notification url (never mind
