Hopefully someone else is having the same problem as me? If I run fullscreen with SDL and OpenGL my quicklaunch, system tray icons mess up. The tooltip box don’t match up with the icons program name? If I run in a window mode everything is fine. I have a AthlonXP 1800+, Radeon 8500 card, 768MB, MSI K7T Pro 2RU MB. I am running Windows XP Prof. I never had these problems with my Win2K system. I hope this issue can be fixed soon, I don’t want to stop using SDL due to me switching back to a Mac in the next few months. I want to be able to code on the PC till then and want my code portable. I do not want to use Direct X. I am wondering if OpenGL is the problem? Is it Windows XP? I just need some answers before I go nuts!!! Here is my code for someone to look at and see if their is something wrong. Thanks.
