Note about Riva TNT/TNT2/GeForce video cards :
The NVidia Detonator driver seems to have a bug : the black is sometime
replaced by grays ! So, if you have a strange fog on your screen when you
are using WinStars, try to download and install the updated driver for your
video card from the manufacturer.
