Dreams do not resume after exiting some fullscreen programs
Sunday, November 18, 2007 by HappyGummyBear7 | Discussion: Animated Wallpapers
I have noticed that several dreams (Circles and corpuscle3, to name two) do not resume when exiting out of a fullscreen application such as a web browser. It is like they are paused, and it is very annoying.
Has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it? Right now my answer is to delete the offending dreams.

I have the same problem. It happens with all dreams except the Stardock creations (Sharp Pit, Sylock Red, Mana Shades etc.)
If I minimize the windows so I can still see some desktop, it doesn't happen.
My system info:
Intel core 2 duo E6700 2.66GHz, 4MB L2 Cache
4GB Dual channel SDRAM at 667MHz
640GB Raid 0
256MB nVidia GeForce 7900 GS

Are you using the Vista Codec pack? I found changing a couple of the decoder settings sorted it for me...

paul you might want to update your nvidia drivers. you are using an older version that does not correct some of the issues the new versions do. but make sure to uninstall your old one first....vista codec pack is ok to try if all is not going well...and it sometimes does help those who have tried everything else..give it a try and get back to us.....
