Having some strange things happening i Vista

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Having some strange things happening i Vista

I just found some of my old Blitz(2D) games and played them on Vista.
I got some strange problems with the graphics, like its not clearing the screen between flips.

Anyone else tried this?

Don't tell me use XP!!!!

just use.... eeh.. never mind..

could be your drivers

This is easy to fix. Create an "Uninstall Vista - Install XP" bat file. It should do the trick. :)

Seriously though :) this sounds like a driver issue.

I downloaded the vista nvidia drivers and it was smashing! :)

Dabz

I think I have the latest drivers, but I can give it another shoot.

Vista graphic drivers are still screwey, from what I know.

I'm still using XP ones =] No Glass for me...

Or... Stick with XP until Vista comes out of Beta.

Use Ex-Pee instead :P

Try forcing a clear on the backbuffer manually after the flip with a cls or rect. Shouldn't need it, but then we "shouldn't" need a lot of things where vistas concerned :/
The other thing to check is weather its actually double buffering and not just writing to the frontbuffer for some reason - i guess drivers could cause this??.

Now I tried the latest drivers, but with no luck.
