RE: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Shadow Framebuffer Test 3

[Suhaib Siddiqi <ssiddiqi at inspirepharm dot com>]

I think it may have something to do with your video driver.  It's worth
checking for the latest video drivers.  I tested Harold Test3 on
Win2K/nVidia GeForce2 Ultra,

Compaq Presario laptop with Win/ME and Dell PowerEdge with NT 4.0 SP6/ATI
Rage video driver.
It works fine except some other bugs.
