| | Microsoft Tinker I just finished installing the Microsoft Windows Vista update. A game call Microsoft Tinker was installed. After rebooting I waited almost 10 minutes (CPU running at 50%) to see a black screen with a menu which options do nothing. |

| | Re: Microsoft Tinker Reboot again and try it. If it still doesn't work, WU may have done an update to your video drivers. You might try downloading and installing the most recent drivers for your video card. -- Dustin Harper dharper@xxxxxx http://www.mstechpages.com | Vista Resource & Information Page (and more!)
