I have given the suggestions a try, but it doesn't solve the problem. Now my games went bonkers too ! But ok, to run through the problem. I'm facing some weird graphical glitch on my windows desktop, mainly on the icons itself. It would seem that all my icons are set to look on a either 8bit or 16bit or maybe 256 colors for all I know ( I ain't too good with the colors thing). I've tried from re-installing my graphic card drivers, changing of resolution, playing around with the icons and such. Right down to yes, defragging my hard drive. Still I'm facing the same problem. Its quite fustrating really that my icons went to another mode where my desktop is set as 1024 * 768 at 32bit colors. the icons just do not change at all! help! *getting depressed and fustrated*

hmmm..I got a similiar problem. but I have no idea how to fix this. Bascially my system had a sudden crash, partially due to forcing too many 'alt -tab' to check on my various messages and such from playing CM 01/02 GDI mode. Only problem for me now is that, after the system crashed, my desktop went a little screwy.. The thing for me is that my icons now seems to be on a 256 or 16bit colors! I used to use a 32bit color system which i still am using for my desktop, but nothing switches the colors of my icons back. Its quite a major eye sore. My system configuration is Duron 750 Abit KT-7/A Mobo 512 SD RAM Gforce 2 MX 400 32 Win 2k Pro (SP2 etc) Screen Res : 1024 x 768 32bit color settings 75hz refresh rate All drivers are updated to the latest, or at least i think it is. Anyone has anyways to fix it its driving me up the wall that I am unable to fix it and i have tried all sorts, resizing, changing of color bits, rebooting...etc...anything which i have thought off except for re-installing windows. help!
