WB6 Configuration Window....

Randomly displays previews with black task bars

Friday, October 26, 2007 by gardenerstouch | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I'm finding that WB6's configuration window is displaying alot of the skin previews, at random, with black taskbars.  Any cause or fix for that?

System Specs: MSI-7061 Mainboard, AMD 2600+ Sempron Processor, 1 gb memory, MSI nVidia GeForce FX 5200 128 mb 8x AGP video (nView not enabled). Windows XP Pro SP2 w/all current updates.

Its part of the same problem that causes some skins to apply with taskbar problems...no answer to the issue that I have seen yet.

Subsequent to making that first post, I have seen several skins actually apply that way, too. To humor Zubaz here is my system post:

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6.0 (build 36 x86)

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC
WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC
Your machine supports per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

Fuzzy Logic: The image hosting place had four different kinds of links .. and I had no idea which kind to post here. Anyway, the image you say you "fixed" isn't appearing in my browser.

Bichur: Yes. I have the latest drivers. I've got a new card on the way now, though. Can't play Oblivion on the one I have now.
