WB Crashes When I attempt to Recolor Skins

Help

from WinCustomize Forums

When I attempt to recolor skins....any skin....the HSL part of the WB Config shows double images and then becomes nonfunctional. In all truth, I've noticed this for a couple of months but figured this would straighten itself out on update...but it hasn't.

Ive followed I.D.'s instructions in the external link to the letter, but it's a "no go".

Any ideas?

Shelby....honest...I tried your fix, and then (and all today) when I wasn't 'zapping' wb and updating mycolors rebooting, trying and retrying....just kept at it and then suddenly it reappeared.

I really don't know how it happened. Suddenly after going to MyColors2.6 and trying yet again...I hate to say it.....*poof. There it was. Don't know what to say, but .... whatever....it worked.

:rolleyes:

No!

Just that it worked out of the blue as it did is all. Some would be mad as hell and be throwing in the towel and blaming the world as such needs be they usually all do.

What yrag wants is the version of the nvidia drivers you have installed check info in your nvidia control panel.

See this page here doc at nvidia; scroll down and check for products supported as such...

nVidia

you might try that one even though it is a beta driver and it is recommended... that other driver from HP I'm not sure of - yet still checking.
