Well guys.... I can't wait until all the kinks are worked out. If I can help in any way please let me know. I thought I would mention what has been happening so far (with 4 diifferent backrounds including the default one windows released).
It seems that no matter which one I attempt to use.... within a matter of minutes I get an error message stating that my video card has stopped responding and recovered. After which, I am left with a blank desktop.
Could be something with my card but I am running a GeForce 8800GTX with 768 megs of memory and using the latest driver from Evga's site grabbed and installed just yesterday (the driver not the card).
Anyway..... not complaining just thought I would mention. If you need any other info. I would be more than happy to oblidge.

Fuzzy Logic - yup I am running version 100.64 for drivers...... went to my manufacturer of the card.... (EVGA) I am sure they just link to NVidia ... but JUST in case I like to pull from the manufacturers site.... maybe there is a line or two of code they tweak for thier card.... (EBGA, BFG, etc.)
I just cannot be certain so it seems logical to me to pull that way.
Island Dog - I will go look @ that article after typing this reply
Digital Death - I wonder if I should drop Diract X10 then install 9c? Maybe that would help. I kinda hate to do that .... I would think that 10 is fully backward compatible but ya never know. I am not utilizing SLI (yet) i have the capability on my mobo just dont have another 500 bucks to lay on another card (yet) so i dont have SLI going yet. Maybe i need to turn something off somewhere? some place I am not aware of? BIOS looks ok to me and the control panel for nvidia looks ok ... of course maybe i am not looking in the right area. .... so far, its only the dreamscapes that glitch. games seem to be fine... of course i hardly play them and I did just upgrade from the beta vista ultimate to the full version of ultimate 3 days ago.

Which driver version do you have? 100.64 works ok for me (2x7600GT).
I sometimes get a message about DreamScene not running followed by a blank desktop. Usually selecting the background again fixes it.
Still early days...
