Exclamation Very strange issue in XP, please help!!
Hi, I have encountered a very strange issue or error on my computer. At first I thought it had to do with Firefox 3 but I have noticed it on other browsers, and even in WMP, Explorer and the start menu on my XP Professional...

The issue is that I occasionally get an error which turns all the buttons black... Also Icons tend to get a strange black frame around them... It is almost is there is an issue with the alpha channel or something. I have tried, effortlessly, to find hep or a solution but no one has posted anything about this... The problem comes and then goes away after a while, but it is still highly annoying...

I'm posting a link to a screen of how it tends to look like when I visit iMDb for example (it's worst then)...

Please, I hope someone might shed a light on this for me. I'm not a computer expert so go easy on me.

Many thanks
Davor

Hmm. Unfortunatly, I have vista now so I cant check it out for you. BUT If you would like to do remote assistance/Teamviewer then I would be happy to assist you in fixing the problem.
