It may be the Vibrant driver but probably more an OS/2 thing. When you switch from one session to the next, I believe OS/2 saves the screen image. At the moment, it can't seem to cooperate with an application that uses the same video display without OS/2 controlling it (which 3DS has to). I guess it would be the Vibrant drivers, since they are accessing the video card directly, by passing the OS – considered a no-no in some circles. But I'm really not knowledgable on this kinda thing (the nuts and bolts) so this is all speculation. I just know what works and doesn't work <g>. James
