FH Windows go Transparent

Post by rfj1001 » 28 Jan 2014 17:36

I've had to instal FH on another pc while I sort out a problem on my normal one

I'm running v 5.0.9 under Windows 7 Pro - 8bit.

The program opens and everything seems to work OK (including accessing the datafile and media, etc.) /except/ when I open a new window. Then, sometimes all FH windows go transparent. The only way I can then remove the problem is to close/open FH.

It happens about once or twice an hour.

No other windows apps show that problem.

Any thoughts on what I might do to resolve the problem.

Thanks

Have you tried upgrading your Graphics card drivers (especially if you have a Nvidea card).

Thanks Jane,

It is an NVidia card and there was a minor upgrade that I've just downloaded. Fingers crossed, it will resolve the problem.
