No idea if it's related but there was/is a problem affecting video if you have palletized textures on and you alt-tab out and back in. You might try turning it off to see if it has an effect.

You have ICQ running while you are flying?  I think closing ICQ and any other similar programs down will help enormously!  When I fly online, I have as little as possible running!  I am running XP and Alt-tab frequently without any problems....  :D

ramzey.

XP uses more resources than ME. This may be why you're getting this. However, since you're on a 56k connection I'd highly recommend quiting ANY other software that also uses the internet connection, ie, ICQ, Yahoo Messenger, Kazaa, etc. You'll see less warps.  

If you want to check messages then wait until you land and exit Aces High completely.
