Can't run any swing apps?!?!?

Hello!

I have a very confusing problem, I'm trying to run the "Java Web Start" gui.

It starts and shows a Window frame (with "minimize","maximize" and the Close"X"), but the rest is gray.

Nothing changes if I try to resize, or just wait (it stood for over 1 hour).

I also tried the "htmlConverter" gui with the same result. Then I tried the simplest Swing program from the Swing tutorial with the same result, but then I right clicked on the little icon on the start menu which resulted in the gui being painted. When I moved the window it went all gray again until i right clicked on the icon again.

Eclipse runs fine, but it is not a swing app.

I run on Windows XP (Home) with all the latest uppdates and J2SDK1.4.2_04.

I have uninstalled and tried older versions of J2sdk with no success.

I have no idea what's going on, can somebody please help.

Regards, Calle

Hello!

I have now kind of solved this problem.

I found this in another forum:

http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=32&thread=330898

I did what it say's, turned of 3D accelaration, and now it works like it should.

I have a ATI Radeon 9800 256Mb graphic card, and it seems like this is the cause of the problem.

If someone read this and know if I should submit this as a Java2D bug please tell me and I will.

Regards Calle
