Hello there.
I'm globally very happy with TS, thanks a lot for a wonderful program.
One problem though: I'm on a dual adapters + dual screens config (main PCIE GeForce 6600 + Secondary nForce 6150 IGP). The TS Window gets screwy whenever I put it on my secondary screen (which is useful to see who's talking while playing on the main screen):
- the little icons next to the name of the players don't display at all, so I don't see who's talking
- some garbage appears on the screen (2cm square, whith random junk in it, sometimes several squares), not necessarily in the TS window, but TS does it, because the garbage appears if and only if TS is on that screen, other apps don't cause/have that problem. I usually put all non-game stuff on that screen: browser (IE, Opera, Firefox), Trillian or MSN Messenger, WinAMP, VLC... all work fine.
- sometimes, XP hangs to a hard reset.
- again all of this when and only when I put TS on the secondary screen. If I keep it on the primary screen, everything is fine. If I disconnect the primary screen on my 6600 and put everything on the 6150, everything is fine also, so it's NOT a 6150 compatibility problem, it's a "living on a secondary adapter" issue :-p
That's with XP all lates patches, latest drivers, and I recently had the pleasure to reinstall all that from scratch, the same problem pops up on both installs.
I can't try to see if that behavior persists if I connect both screens to my 6600 card, since it has one VGA and one DVI output, but I don't have any DVI monitors.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm willing to devote some time to helping debug/test If someones tells me what to try/look for :-)
Best regards and thanks again for a wonderful program,
Olivier
