Computer bogs down RESOLVED

[ac3100]

Newbie here,

From VB6 I open a project that has a single form.

I run the program that has a timer that has a 100 interval.

Within the timer code I use a getpixel API call and displays the color number on the form.

It seems to bog the computer down.

For example, I autohide my toolbar at the bottom of my screen.
Normally it smoothly popsup when I place my mouse cursor down to it.

When the program has run for awhile, the toolbar posup, but not very smoothly. It's kind of jerky.

After a while it gets real bad. I move the form and it leaves an image of where its been. Numbers appear in the top righthand corners of open windows.

Its really strange.

Any ideas?
