FYI it was not the windows transparency thingie, or at leasr not just that.
My second install, the dababes one kept doing the same thing until I changed the switches.
So it seems it needed both things, or at least the direct draw switcn

I changed the switches and turned off the windows transparency setting, whatever that is, and it worked like a charm.
I'm so excited. I can now get rid of my old Windows 7 laptop and get an Alienware desktop. (jumping up and down in glee)
Good to hear! I also felt relief and excitement when I got my switches working for the first time!

I got an Alienware "desktop" tower about 6 years ago. It is water cooled and weighs about 80 pounds. It does not sit on my desktop! Otherwise, it has been a great machine.

I have been considering an Alienware laptop next so I can take it on trips and continue to play and post here.
My old Alienware was only 40 lbs.
I got a Powerspec from Microcenter 6 months ago. Best price/performance on the market.
