Actually the menus don't skin correctly either. They look like plain menus, no matter what the skin.

Firefox 1.5 Bookmarks flicker (WB 5) in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

Firefox 1.5 skins fine, although when you go to the bookmarks menu, the lower options flicker when the mouse goes over them. "Bookmark This page" "Bookmark All Tabs" "Manage Bookmarks" and all other menus are fine, but everything below the above bookmarks flicker when the mouse goes over them. Whether it's something to do with the fact that these items have icons next to them???

Still no problem with the Forceware 82.65 drivers, but now I've just changed to the Aura skin with transparent borders and shadows so this will be the real test. Fingers crossed.

I've not had a problem so far with the Forceware 82.65 drivers, but no doubt I'll jinx myself saying that.

Ok well I have just found an updated driver (ForceWare 82.65) http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1299 I've just upgraded my drivers to the above and re-installed WB5, so I'm gonna give it a run for few hours to see if that helps. If not, I will give the 77.77 drivers a try.

I read that too, although I didn't really want to roll back to those drivers. The 6600 should be capable of what WB5 throws at it, surely? It's hard to work out why it's happening because it's random.

Is there anything that can be done? i.e with a future update of WB 5, or is it just a case of hoping for Graphics card driver updates?

Not sure now, something about a kernel fault as far as I remember. I uninstalled WB5 due to the instability. It seemed to hang more than blue screen, i.e no mouse movement etc and the red HD LED on (although the whole system was frozen).

I did an installation over the top of 4.6 at first, then I tried it by uninstalling everything and re-installing WB5 as a fresh copy. Thanks for the rapid reply.

Windowblinds 4.6 works fine, although I have recently purchased Version 5 (latest version as of today) and my PC totally hangs and blue screens on random occasions.
