[Dxbase] Help with log refresh

TIM! This is the point I was making in my email.
Drivers that ship with products are JUST ENOUGH TO GET THEM RUNNING!!!!!
First Make sure your Motherboard BIOS is Absolutely The Absolute latest from
your Mobo manufacturer. Then update it.
Then go make sure you have the latest drivers for your MOBO's Chip set...
The chipset controls all the interfacing of your processor, memory, its all
the bus drivers, hardware controls... EVERYTHING.
Then Go out to your video card manufacturer and download the absolute latest
VIDEO drivers for your Video card. You may need to update your Ethernet
port, your Audio drivers... You have a lot of work ahead of you.
I just bought new Mobo here and the latest bios was 4 versions NEWER than
what was on the board!!!! The new drivers were all 1/1/07 or 2/1/07 within
a month new for all the other stuff. You cannot rely on a "New Board"
having new install software and drivers.
Sometimes a NEW DRIVER will cause and issue then you need to back up one to
get all software to run.
Once you get these things updated many of your problems may just "go away".

Yes, I am using dual monitors although I run the program on the main
monitor. I just tried it on the secondary monitor and it does the same
thing. My video card is new and I play games with it and no problem there.

By any chance do you have 'dual monitors'.
I find that many DXB windows, do not work properly on the secondary monitor 
in a multi monitor setup.
And with my video card, if I open a window for a new program on top of DXB, 
after closing the new program, DXB may have some portions unseen till 
refreshed.
