Title: strange colors in game after Alt+tab back to desktop?
Post by: sticks on December 01, 2001, 11:35:00 PM

Hiya guys,

 I just upgraded from win98 to XP, and everything is working fine in my sys.  However, now if something happens while flying in AH, causing me to go back to desktop, when enter aces high again the colors are distorted(neon green) and some objects (i.e. planes) are transparent.  I used the new detonator drivers for XP with my gainward GF3, then tried the win98 det. drivers with no help.  This never happened while running AH in win98.

  Any answers??

Make sure you refresh rate and resolution are the same for you desktop and AH.  Nvidia drivers have had this problem since the 12.xx series.
