Any time I open an image in windows, theres a chance it won't load properly, and 1/2 the image (diagonally) is missing. See below..
If I resize the window (which re-renders the image to a new size), the diagonal half that isn't working can change between black or the previous image, and the unworking half can swap to the other side, or the problem can go away, or (rarely) it will affect both sides of the image leaving just a black screen with a small white (?? or possibly the original image) diagonal line. This also happens on the windows pictures screensaver..
I could live with this, but just knocked a movie together with windows live movie maker, and its happening in the credits to that (on the exported file). I thought it might just be my graphics driver, but if it occurs on a movie that has been exported to another file, and when I do a screenshot, it can't be (right??)! I've just re-installed windows live to the latest version to see if it was that and no luck. Also searching for 'half image missing' etc finds nothing.
Programs which I know are affected are windows photo gallery, windows live photo gallery, windows live picture screen saver and windows movie maker. Doesn't seem to affect the windows desktop or internet explorer
any ideas? I guess its a central dll of some sort but don't know where to start. Its Windows 7 home premium.
