A couple weeks ago I finally broke down and allowed my Dell laptop to run the updates it have been bugging me about for over a year. 2 glaring changes occured, one of which has ruined my emulation experience.
1) Program menus off the start buttom are now extremely sluggish and semi-transparent (Explorer menus work fine).
2) No matter what emulator I run now (Yame, epsxe, Snes9x, etc.), character sprites become EXTREMELY blurred whenever there's movement. Graphics are crisp and sharp when my character isn't moving. Motion blur was not a problem before I ran the updates. The emus on my computer at work don't have this problem (windows 98). At first the different is subtle. But after 5 minutes, my eyes feel like popping out of my head.
I can't play my games anymore for fear of going blind. Dell support can't figure it out. Can anybody here? Am I the only one with this problem? HELP!
