Overlay/desktop AVS on win XP

UK-Dave · 29th August 2002, 09:56

I have just got a new PC running XP and have set up WinAmp as on my old system running WinME , But after checking all settings i cannot get Overlay-Desktop AVS to work at all,

I have already checked the normal display settings but cannot find the active desktop settings in WinXP (if indeed it has them -as nothin shown on help!) my system if running a nVidia graphics card

Can Any one HELP ?????????

The active desktop settings are in the Web tab of the Display properties in the control panel. Right-click your desktop and click "properties" to open it.
