I have recently added WinXP Pro 64, that is I am dual booting. I have an AMD X2 64 processor, 4GB RAM, and ATI Radeon HD 4870 graphics card with 1GB video RAM. The SL viewer works fine on XinXP Pro 32. In WinXP Pro 64 I get graphics distortions with pixel streams and other effects. I am using the latest Catalyst 9.6 graphics drivers in both XinXP Pro 32 and WinXP Pro 64. Done anyone have any ideas what the problem is?

TIA

Disable OpenGL Vertex Buffer Objects in SL, under preferences > Graphics > Hardware options and see if that helps.
