Please log in for more thread options I am a registered WinBoard user and have been using WinBoard v2.25 with Windows 2000 for some time. I just moved to XP and want to use WinBoard there; however, WinBoard 2.25 does NOT open in Windows XP so I was forced to move up to version 2.27X. Now WinBoard opens and runs but there is a VERY annoying bug. The opening logo screen is ALWAYS on the screen (behind the WinBoard active window) and remains on the screen even when WinBoard is minimized. It covers up all icons on the desktop unless I press the "show desktop" Icon. This is very annoying bug. Anyone know of a fix? -Craig | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options many annoying bugs as sell as serious and fatal bugs. Furthermore these bugs were never fixed in "updated" versions, which came out quite infrequently. The only real fix for IVEX software is to uninstall it. I am so glad they finally went out of business. Craig Johnson wrote: > Windows 2000 for some time.

I would move to another CAD program but I have a lot of time and energy invested in developing custom parts for the library. I don't want to start over. -Craig | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
