Problem between netmeeting and w2k


Recommended Posts

sorry for my english but i'm french so excuse my mistakes in advance

so my problem is this one: when i start netmeeting it's works good but when i start winamp or another software in association with netmeeting his icon (of the software) become in really bad quality (like 256 colors even if my resolution is 32 bits)

so it's really desagreable

my video car is a voodoo 3/ 2000 and i update the driver but the problem is still there

thanks for your help in advance

It sounds like you are "sharing" your desktop or sharing an application with another PC via MS Netmeeting, and it also sounds like the ICON for the application that you are sharing on the other PC only displays in 256 colors.

I believe this is intentional by design, just like the MS design of Terminal Server Services for 2000 Server, which also run in 256 colors. Your view of the ICONs shouldn't change, only the other person using the shared programs should see different results.

Have you selected the 24bit color option when sharing the programs?

    • Intel's new GPU driver adds support for FBC: Firebreak, Stellar Blade, and more by Taras Buria Intel has released a new non-WHQL driver under version 32.0.101.6876. The update brings support and optimizations for four games and a single fix for visual artifacts that appear in certain situations. Here is the list of newly-supported games in driver 32.0.101.6876 on systems with Intel Arc B-Series, A-Series, and Intel Core Ultra with built-in Arc graphics: FBC: Firebreak Rematch Stellar Blade Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege X There is also a single bug fixed in today's release: Intermittent visual artifacts may appear in certain usage scenarios. Known issues remain the same as in the latest WHQL release, except for a new bug that causes audio glitches on handheld devices: Certain handheld devices may experience audio glitches and lower-than-expected performance while audio is playing. You can mitigate the problem by following a guide that Intel published on the official forum. It requires reinstalling the graphics and NPU drivers on the affected systems. A proper fix will be available in a future driver update. You can install Intel 32.0.101.6876 non-WHQL driver on PCs with 64-bit Windows 10 and Windows 11 with the following graphics products from Intel: Discrete GPUs Integrated GPUs Intel Arc A-Series (Alchemist) Intel Arc B-Series (Battlemage) Intel Iris Xe Discrete Graphics (DG1) Intel Core Ultra Series 2 (Lunar Lake and Arrow Lake) Intel Core Ultra (Meteor Lake) Intel Core 14th Gen (Raptor Lake Refresh) Intel Core 13th Gen (Raptor Lake) Intel Core 12th Gen (Alder Lake) Intel Core 11th Gen (Tiger Lake) You can download the driver from the official website here. Full release notes are available here (PDF). Keep in mind that this is a non-WHQL driver, which means it could be less stable than certified WHQL drivers.
