[QUOTE="dragonfly, post: 202519, member: 17600"] Update: Configuration crashes on my laptop when I enter the Visualization part, so I can't test viz functionality on that one. I have two other PC's standing around doing nothing. I'll hook up at least one of them tomorrow and install a fresh system and attempt it on that. I'll make sure to outline my steps as thoroughly as possible. By the way, it seems when I run MP in windowed mode and play a song, the preview window is black and the MP window starts blinking like it's losing focus and taking it back again rapidly over and over. When I drag the window a bit, it stops losing focus and the viz shows up in the preview window, and then I can press 'x' and enjoy it in full-view. However, I still can't run the viz in fullscreen. If I try to alt-enter to fullscreen mode while the viz is running, it crashes with an out-of-memory error (which is hilarious, considering the amount of memory this PC has and the fact that I actually *had* it running *once* on a PC with a lot less memory in it). If I start MP in fullscreen and start playing a song, MP minimizes the first time, and I need to click it in the tray to get back, then playback has stopped. If I attempt it again, it sometimes just minimizes again, and sometimes it crashes completely and terminates. My 3 different desktop PC's all do this, and I asked a friend of mine to try it for me the other day, and his PC does it too. I'll try it on a few more boxes tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure it's not me doing anything wrong. I'm using the correct files (as far as I know, the ones posted in this thread at least), I've tried several versions of MP; RC3 as well as the latest public SVN versions. I'm considering going back to an older revision to see if I can find one which works, just for testing. Cheers! EDIT: I tested some more with TwistedPixel and it doesn't work either. It works in windowed mode, but not in fullscreen. It crashes with "D3D CreateDevice Failed. TwistedPixel cannot run and will now exit." I have no idea if this is relevant to the Milkdrop issue, but I thought I should mention it anyway. [/QUOTE]
