| The test application opens a little window that looks like this: http://pic.ipicture.ru/uploads/090814/qvS6T1mtO3.jpg That seems to look encouraging.

| There should be 2 labels. My advice is to reinstall .NET on your PC.

| I tried reinstalling .NET and that didn't help. I decided to get a fresh download of .NET and found that there was a .NET 2.1, but that didn't help either. I tried booting windows in Safe Mode to see if there might be any issues with drivers, and that didn't help. Maybe this is a Windows 2000 problem. I notice that Microsoft dropped support for Windows 2000 in .NET 3.0. Maybe this is an example of why. I'll continue to experiment on my own. It would help me search if you could tell me what the code is doing to draw the technical details text, and how that is different from the way the other text is drawn (the other line in your test program that did display on my system).

| I was reading the document that you linked, and look what I found: Quote Note: The DrawText methods that specify a Point as the upper-left corner of the drawn text do not render correctly on Windows 2000. If your application is intended for use on machines running Windows 2000, you should use one of the DrawText methods that specify a Rectangle for the bounds of the drawn text." Does that sound like it might apply here?

| Oh well. Believe it or not, this is the first time I've run into something that couldn't be made to work on Win2K with some simple workaround. I guess it's time to bite the bullet. I have everything I need to move to XP, I just never had a good reason to do it before. Thank you for all the time you spent on this. I'll be putting something in your tip jar as soon as I get my new Paypal account going. I had one, but I think Paypal closed it out because I haven't used it for so long. Now I have to go though that whole verification thing again. Have a nice weekend. I'll drop by in a few days to let you know how it went with XP.

| Well, if you think it's worth the effort, I'd certainly be grateful and I'd be happy to help with testing. I'll check periodically to see how it's going.

| No testing is needed. It should work in the next version I've already fixed this issue.
