Are you using Cursor XP? or any tranparency programs? i.e. winfx, y'z shadows etc. Quicktime and java programs have issues with alpha channels, so the result is constant and irritating screen blinkage. There is no fix that I know of, so you just have to put up with it or close off fx progs when you open QT.

OK, when I start quick time... and I minimize it or keep it up. the courser FLASHES. Does this happen to anyone else?
Edit: No programs like that are running... Thnx though... I dont have any trougble with Lime Wire.
have you noticed that the smiley is different in the original message and in Binary's post...
I found that ObjectBar caused Quicktime to do this on my system.

lol. could be it 
gfx cards are cheap nowadays man. grab yourself atleast a 64mb one.
Get at least a Geforce3, because Geforce2s dont have great hardware acceleration.
quicktime overlay appearently conflicts with the windows transparent overlay (even on a 64mb card). With Java I noticed it mostly happens with Sun's java. Coincidently it is also the same part of the chip that does motion compensation on programs like powerdvd.
Anyway.. I'm glad they are doing away with this overlay system in LH. =Þ
oh yeah I myself got a geforce2 because my computers motherboard\power supply doesn't have enough voltage for more (yeah I know, time to get a new computer, someday). It works good in a lot of things and is definetly faster than my voodoo3 16mb but it and my computer is getting long in the tooth that's for sure.
