[QUOTE="globaldonkey, post: 428675, member: 49844"] OK, I've gone to the darkside and I'm trying an installation of MP on Vista Ultimate. First thing I noticed in the installation process was that the MP installer wanted to downgrade DirectX 10 to Direct X9c. I didn't build the base OS on this system, but is DX10 "normal" on Vista? Is it normal for MP to want to backlevel this? Post installation, I ran DX diag, and it reports I am still running DX 10. I suspect DX may be the root of the following problem: Now the problem..... MP runs flawlessly in window mode. But if I go to fullscreen mode, as I switch around a few menus, the GUI eventually becomes corrupted (usually all the text disappears), and eventually MP locks up and won't even respond to ALT-F4. Using Blue3wide. Also, I noticed some tearing in video playback. I was using EVR, so I enabled Aero. The problem got much worse. Logs don't seem to show anything abnormal. Any clues? [/QUOTE]
