Hello,
In windows 98, my screen looks very messy (see next post for captured
images).
Things (see list below) seem to take on muddled images of things I've
recently clicked on and images that have been on the screen:

Scrollbar arrows
Minimize, Maximise and close buttons
Start button
Explorer left pane and folder branches
Small icons in corner of programs
Icon next to close when you right click a program in the taskbar
Radio buttons and checkboxes.

Also, I get strange horizontal patterns on my desktop that disappear when I
press 'F5'.

My PC is:
533 celeron with slot 1 adapter
Gigabyte ga-6bxc motherboard w/ 192mb sdram
Creative Geforce 256 'annihilator pro'
Creative soundblaster 16 value isa
running windows 98 w/ latest detonator drivers @ 1152 * 864 * 16

Any help/info appreciated,
Ben
