Last week I had changed some video resolution settings and noticed the redraw disappeared. But last night the redraw returned but very infrequently, few and far between. Again, my problem occurred only when closing the search screen; it took a few seconds and then Hoster would sort of blink in and out for a second.

These are the settings I use that seem to improve the situation greatly:
Set computer at 1024 x 728 16 bit color.
Set second display at 800 X 600 16 bit color (sometimes it sets itself back to 32 bit, depending on your sound card).

The other thread also mentioned to leave the DXDiag box open during Hoster as a pretty good cure.

I'm gonna test with both tonight.

Bryan why do you have a different setting for the TV monitor and computer screen. I run both of mine at 1024x768 and have never had the redraw problem. How much video card memory do you have?
