hmmm. AGP aperture size. is that something that can be modified in setup? i'll take a look. maybe i'll stumble on it. what specifically happens here is that while the video window and the VIC window are overlapping, bad things happen (almost like a recursion gone wild). once they are no longer overlapping, the problem disappears. thanks. --fred > I wish I could help more, but all my multi-processor systems don't have > that problem. > > -Mike > > -- > ====================== > Michael Gates > VTC Services > mgates at sdsc dot edu > 858.534.5188 > SDSC Main bld.
