Thanx for getting back to me. Since I posted that Bug I have discovered that the problem only resides on my laptop ( a 3-year old Acer). My desktop PC seems to be fine. After some looking around I saw a post that indicated that certain video cards are no longer supported in 8.10. I don't know how to check my laptop to see what card it has installed. If that is the case, I'd like to downgrade back to 8.04 on my laptop only, but can't find any help links to do that, either. lol Thanx again!
