I've recently installed Plus for Windows XP. When I set Aquarium as the
screen saver, after a minute or so the view breaks up.
Anyone else experienced this?
TIA - Dave

64.

That might be it. My acquarium works fine on my machine, now that I've
installed more RAM. It still sometimes broke up, but this problem stopped
occuring after I purchased the additional fish....with that purchase, there
are additional settings including setting screen resolution.
