Hi George,
The only thing that I can think of that may help, is to alter the screen
resolution and color depth within the display settings. This will affect
things right across a Windows session, so I prefer to leave this sort of
thing to the last to try. However, screen resolution and color depth can
have an impact on the performance of the off screen model.
