This indeed solves problems with files going walkies, Vista is crazy in that it does a lot of stuff it thinks you would like so tracking whats going on is tricky.
Disable the intro
Right click on your WinSPMBT Icon and go to the Compatability tab & select Disable desktop composition.
This seems to help with colour problems & it only applies to the program, not a global change.
Also more people are probably running on widescreen monitors could this be causing full screen mode problems.
Another thing you can run programs in a seperate screen this might help people with colour probs.
Rather than alt tabing out of switch screens as think this causes it to check the colour pallete & it might store it in the page file.
Not sure mainly use it on XP |
How do I disable the Intro movie? Thats where both SP MBT and SP WW2 crash for me |
See post number 36 in this thread.
