today to the turn on of pc from ibernation same problem; DeskScapes message: dream need wdm and it don't run, but on task it run! The triggered dream is BlissfulDream, up to last night it worked fine without problems, suddenly dont work anymore   now if I try to select on automatically select... and press ok, in the options of the dream it doesn't memorize it but the selection returns on always plays to specific...

I have Vista Home Premium, DeskScapes 2.5 and Impulse installated. But as I repeat, up to now I have not problem with this dream

Be sure you don't have any application running in any mode older than Vista (Go to PROPERETIES of any .exe/programm) and go to 'compatibility' , then you check if nothing is checked...  I noticed it after i used alone to make my windows have a red/green glow... It automaticly shutt's down exsms to pervent bugs.
