Default Vista flaw or video card problem
Well whenever I open a picture I either get the picture or a black screen (as below) sometimes the pictures will work sometimes they wont, was wondering if this is a bug or i should really look into this. I have windows Vista ulti. 64bit




Btw I only play CS 1.6 and Source and I get major glitches every couple or so minutes for like 5 secs then it goes back to normal,,its very annoying people think i have lag hacks..

any help will be rewarded

Not a vista issue? Maybe a driver issue?

im assuming you have the latest nvidia drivers? if so i think its a Vista glitch. Try reinstalling vista again or on a new partition to see if it works. If it stills doesnt work its probly your video card or the pic formats?. theirs some things to try

That's a vista bug, the 64bit has many more bugs than the 32bit.
