What is your Vista experiance score?

Have you tried both the dynamic (Bouncing Box) and the video (Grassy Field) dreams?

I'm assuming your clicking on the Run button for DeskScapes in Impulse. I'm not sure how the XP version works but in Vista, you can also run DeskScapes under the desktop background settings in the personalization menu.

To use DeskScapes in Vista, right click on the desktop, choose "Personalize" from the menu, choose "Desktop background", click on the dropdown box for "Picture Location" and choose "Deskscapes". Then choose a dream and depending how large it is it should load in a few seconds.

You can see screenshots that somewhat show this at this link... Link

There's also some troubleshooting tips for Vista at this link... Link

For Vista..

An easier way would be to right click on the dream or any supported video file you have saved to your PC and select "Set as Desktop Background" from the context menu. This will auto load any dream or supported video file and set it as the functioning wallpaper, without having to open the Dreamscapes interface.

Have you found any fixes for xp users yet on Deskscapes? I have PNY technologies NVidia 7600 GS 8x 512 mb video card. I still get the same error message ....AGP card detected. Deskscapes 2.5 is not compatible with your video card at this time. Please click no or cancel to read compatibility information. Try applying Dream anyway?............ And that 's as far as I can get, Any help would be appreciated
