John, I really don't know how to explain it, except to point out that there is no problem loading a picture wih UShow, showing a picture in a screen 'slid down', in the same position as that of the test done with DPaint. There could well be a problem that has to do with DMA, and it could also be that DPaint does something with the blitter that causes the problem. Any time there is sufficient contention for the same resource, there will be problems, and if Dpaint is hogging the bus via the blitter or copper, then that could explain something. The borrom line, to me, is that there are other programs that show no evidence of this problem under the same conditions. -larry
