I know of that behaviour on some gfxcards, the only problem is, I can't really test it, because on my pc everything works fine.

Works fine here, but i´ve had that problem with some other

It just happens with some demos, no big problem at all...

I found this nice Library on purearea that comes with some extra commands for Sprites...

Including SwapBuffers()...

This little baby turned my 60 FPS game (using flipbuffer()) into a 350!!! FPS game...

I was quite impressed! And give it 6 thumbs up !!!!

It's called SpriteX...

i hope fred is reading this
