> since XP was installed on my machine, Blackbox often stops refreshing its
window during long process. Even the status bar where I write stuff times to
times to see progress, doesn't refresh. The Blackbox process goes on, I can
use other applications in the mean time but Blackbox display is frozen.
Memory is far from saturated. Eventually, as my process ends, all results
are displayed as expected and display is back to normal.

Hello Jean-Philippe,

I confirm that I experience the same problems with XP, but not with Win98.
But not always. Very strange behaviour.
