Hi everyone,
I have an issue with any 3D screensaver - Here it is - After I installed some games (MOHAA), when ever I move my mouse to get out of my 3D Text screensaver, I hear the monitor make a scanning kind of noise like it's scanning for the refresh rate and it takes about one second for my monitor to get back to my desktop. When I'm back in the desktop, my background goes blue. I can get it back to normal by moving a window and sort of 'erasing' the blue screen, like on paint...ANyone got any tips or suggestions?
Thanks for reading.
