Hi Michael,
I had a similar problem on some older machines running Windows XP after
upgrading from 2.9u2 to 2.9u3; there was an incompatibility with the video card
driver and the new software. It was suggested that I update the video card
driver, but downgrading to the previous one worked wonders for me.
Right-click my computer on the desktop and click manage. When this window
opens, click Device Manager and double-click your Display Adapter to have the
option to either update or roll-back your driver. I'm not sure which direction
you should go, but I'd definitely check the video card driver first.

Subject: [idvusers] ver 3.0 installation
G'day - IDV 2_9u3 has been working just fine on my 32 bit Windows PC running
XPsp3 - for some time.
I have tried to install the advertised v3_0 and while it installs OK - it won't
run - all I get is a blank DOS screen fleetingly. Same with v3_0u1 - is it just
me? V2_9u3 is still working by the way.
