    Listview icons dissapearing?

    Hello, I have a strange problem in my app and I couldn't find the right answer so I hope someone can help.

    I have a simple listview, with only two icons, everything works fine except on one computer, icons just dissapearing . as you move the window you can see it, sometimes full, sometimes half. I just cant resolve the problem, computer is almost new, windows XP, graphic card and resolution also OK. Anyone had similar problem?

    The only thing I can suggest is to check the individual settings on the computer. They may have something set that no one else does, and not even realize the setting is in place.

    Sounds like may that one system may have a custom XP theme that may be interferring with the drawing of the icon as the theme is probably being applied to the listview too. Are you using the standard listview or are you using a third party listview?

    it's a standard listview. I also think that there is some issue with the computer as this is the strangest problem I encountered so far. Will try with new graphic card drivers and will notify about that. Xp, with standard theme, so that's not the problem. Well, he have a linux as a wallpaper, that must be it , I'm joking of course.

    A linux wallpaper, hmmm....

    anyway, try re-installing the .NET framework & the graphics adapter's driver before you attempt changing any hardware, it might be as simple as that
