thsi demo does crash my computer. the application window fram becomes visible, but isnt filled with content. the computer stops responding and crashes after about a minute (immediate restart).

winXP SP2
GeForce 6800GT (forceware 66.81)
1024MB RAM
P4 2.6GHz

Hi,

the demo reproducably crashes my computer as well, winXP SP2, GeForce6800 (forceware 66.81), 1024mb RAM, Althon64 3500+ (quite similar to ChrisLux' system [hi Chris btw...I hope your coming along with your thesis :-)])

I'll see if I can fix it.

Hm, it crashes in OpenGLApp.cpp, line 289. The line says:
SwapBuffers(hdc);
8-O
And now, the app even reproducably crashes MSVC each time I try to recompile??
I guess the problem is somewhere in the pbuffer creation code - if I'm able to compile the project again later, I will go on with fixing ;-)

If I uncomment Main.cpp line 288 (drawScene(j), then the app runs (with a black screen of course), but REALLY REALLY slow - I'm able to move the mouse every 5 seconds for a very short time. The rest of the time the screen is frozen. Software driver fallback for some reason perhaps?

Somewhat "fixed"...leave everything as is, only uncomment rendered.cpp line 76 (changeBlending(...)).
Even better: uncomment only app.cpp, line 503 (setBlending(...)). Seems like some driver thing triggered by this order of gl commands (?) - if some nVidia guy reads this, you might want to check it.

And a last non-technical remark: imo the focus change is way too slow :-)
