I usually have alot of windows open simultaneously (about 10-20 windows), of which about 60% are IE6.

Recently, my screen is just going crazy when I have too many windows open (randomly).
Here are some screenshots:

I'm running Win2K on a AMD Thunderbird 1.2GHz with 512 DDRam and a GForce 2MX card.
I've had this set-up for the last 2 years, but this crazy screen stuff started a few months ago. It just happens randomly (when opening a new window, clicking a link, reading an email, typing something).
Ohh, did I mention - It's hell'a annoying!!

Have you tried new video drivers? Not sure what else to suggest myself (other than a dual- or triple-monitor setup, based on what you're doing there :D)

i think there are way too much windows and it's using up all your ram. I see this when i exit from a game - there would be a few second delay with your results - and i'm running a p3 1ghz - so i think that this is the problem.

I can solve you the multiple explorer problems however - try to get Crazy Browser - a modified version of IE - only that it openes multiple windows in it's own window - called tabbed browsing. This way i save much pf my ram. Give it a try.

I've downloaded the latest drivers form NVidia - let's see what happens.

Serp86: How many windows can you open inside of the Crazy Browser? Is there a limit?
