Marine Aquarium 2.0

I was so lucky to get a preview of both Marine Aquarium Time and Marine Aquarium 2.0.

I was very happy to see that MAT worked perfectly on my system, I never was able to run the Marine Aquarium without hanging or crashing my system. I used to have a NVidia GeForce3 card, which together with XP was known to be a difficult combination.

I threw out the NVidia and installed a Matrox Parhelia, and never had a more stable system! (It wasn't just the screensaver that caused my system to crash..) I have had the pleasure of enjoying MAT for over a month now, which I'm very happy for!

However, the Marine Aquarium is still causing problems on my system. It doesn't hang, but when logging on I have no wallpaper. I go to properties for the screen and seethat the wallpaper is indeed selected, so all I have to do is make a change, change it back and click apply - the wallpaper is then back again.

My MB is a VIA VP6
Dual PIII 850 MHZ
RAM 1024
Matrox Parhelia 128MB
And Win XP servicepack1

It's no big deal really, I enjoy the MAT immensly, and that's good enough for me
