Hi Carol...whenever you see that type of behavior (min/max screen or
scrolling affecting it) it's USUALLY video card related. At least in my
experience. One way to check is to turn down your graphics aceleration
in your Display Properties....if this fixes it, then you know it's your
video card and you might be able to fix it by updating your video driver
or just keeping the graphics aceleration turned down. I have one old
machine where I have the aceleration turned down completely (slider all
the way to the left) and it runs perfectly...but as soon as I turn it up
even one notch, these weird problems happen again.

Linda,
I am running Win2000
P4 1.9ghz
784 Ram (whatever 256 x 3 equals - I can never remember)
64mb video card.
So I know I have the resources. It is just so odd. I will be scrolling
and
all of a sudden things just look 'screwy.' Only solution I have found
is
what I stated before. Minimize - Maximize screen.
Best regards,
Carol Parent
