Windowblinds 7 Latest version broke on Windows XP

from Stardock Forums

Since installing Windowblinds 7.2c, I've had nothing but problems with skin corruption. Basically none of the skins work anymore under Windows XP. They appear to work at first but after about 5 minutes or so, the menus and borders become corrupt. I've uninstaled and reinstalled and I've even reinstalled Windows XP, but the problem remains, so I can only assume the problem is with the latest version of Windowblinds, as it worked ok before I updated.

Is there anyway to install a previoius version. Iif so how, because I don't see a way using impulse.

 

Thanks:grin:

Well I've reinstalled Windowblinds 7.2c and also went back to an earlier Nvidia driver 260.99 and so far every is working fine. Looks like it could be the latest Nvidia drivers that caused the problem, but I've also uninstalled Corecodec, so I'm not 100% sure. I'll have to do some more testing, but thanks for all your help & suggestions.

Well it's definitely the Nvidia 270 drivers being incompatible with Windowblinds 7 or vice versa thats causing the problem. I've now upgraded my graphics card to a GTX 560Ti and now I have no choice but to use the 275.50 drivers and the corruption is back. Stardock haven't been any help, just said they would pass the info I gave them onto the development team. >:(  How long will I have to wait before this is fixed?
