I too had problems with the screen whiting out in places. However I believe my problem was with my video card. I have a Fage Fury Pro32mb AGP running at the full 4x speed. With the default drivers supplied by Microsoft everything was fine. I went to ATI's website downloaded the new software designed by them for XP and I had problems. So I rolled back to the old Microsoft supplied drivers. Recently on the Windows Update Microsoft suppled a new set of drivers that were seemingly identical to those on ATI's website, but ths time everything works. I don't know if DX is entirely the case. Everyone should check their video card manufactuter for an update of the display drivers under XP.

My concern is that I am using XP RC1. I don't know if this is the same as the retail version that has come out. I am waiting on a friend to get me teh full version from teh Microsoft (at Microsoft)employee store just down the road from my house.
