When I quit, it makes my whole screen flicker, and sometimes it crashes the display driver. I'm on Vista so it normally recovers, but not always. This probably happens 1 time in 50 just to be really awkward. Are we exiting cleanly? Have people on OS's with better OpenGL support / graphics drivers that suck less experienced this, or is it just an issue with my system?

    On my brothers comp at home he used Vista and I didn't get anything like that at all over easter.

    Never seen it on XP either.

    What hardware is he on? I've got an ATi Radeon X1900XT, and the latest drivers, but it's happened on the previous 2 driver releases too :/

    Bumped down to priority 1 unless we see anyone else with this issue.
