I have a relatively mature SFML V1.1 program that is experiencing a strange problem. I had it running on a Windows Vista Ultimate machine with no problems. Now I am trying to run it on a Windows Vista Home Premium machine and when any text is displayed on the screen from the SFML program it first appears as black boxes instead of readable text. However, if a key is struck in a text input box, for example, the text will then display as normal. Any ideas? Please prod for more information/source code as neccessary. Thank you. By the way, I can compile the program with either MinGW or Visual Studio and the binary will exhibit the same behavior.

Wow, a problem which concerns two versions of the same OS (well, it's Widows :wink:... I'm kidding)...
Quite weird, indeed, I've never seen it before.
But it's a well-know fact that Windows Vista is full of bugs, maybe the problem is about Vista itself. Moreover, I was running Vista Premium when I started to use SFML, and I do not remember having had such a problem.

Can you try to extract a small and complete code which reproduces the problem ?

Not to worry. I guess it's just the platform I am working on. I am not spending anymore time on the project or SFML until SFML becomes more mature. Thank you.
