Custom desktop icons won't stick
What I mentioned about the error reporting, was that I think I read some
place that the Nvidia Service was similar to MS error reporting. I can't confirm this though. On a side note I personally have error reporting disabled. I doubt this makes a difference though. Also the drivers that I am using are the ones straight from the Nvidia website, no the ones from MS update page. Not sure if this makes a difference in this situation or not.

Personally, I think this is somehow related to DirectX 9.0b. But the Nvidia thing worked for me. John, does ATI have any extra services running? "Craig" wrote in message ... Lol. Sorry, I only found a solution to the Nvidia card issue. Craig "John Smith" wrote in message ... Yeah, what happens when you are using an ATI graphics card? :P On Tue, 20 Jan 2004 21:45:25 -0600, "Marc Borland" wrote: :Someone else solved this :Run "services.msc" ISABLE nvidia display driver service :reboot :change yer icons all you want roblem solved!!! : :And a huge Thank You to whomever originally posted this solution! : : :"John Smith" wrote in message .. . : No, I don't think it has anything to do with the them I'm using.
