PyMOL Users:

There have been several reports of crashes when launching PyMOL show (PSW)
files (ie. PSE files renamed PSW to trigger the full-screen mode).  The
common factor behind in these crashes seems to have been Intel Extreme
Graphics chips and Windows XP Service Pack 2.

We managed to obtain one such affected system today and were indeed able to
reproduce the crash when using an old version of the Intel Extreme Graphics
driver.  Fortunately, the current graphics drivers available from Intel do
seem to eliminate the crash.  If you are experiencing this problem, then you
can obtain an updated driver from:
