This issue is still under investigation but this is the information that I
have at the moment, once we finish the investigation we will post KB
articles explaining the workarrounds on detail:
This is an OEM-specific bug in their display driver.
For now, a potential workaround is to set the registry value
HKLM\System\GDI\Drivers\ATI\DisableDeviceBitmap to "0"
See
http://www.tweaks2k2.com/hx4700.htm and
http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=33089&postdays=0&post
order=asc&start=80&sid=4c2e106076d2e18f841967d9c3ab1150
There is also apparently a way to work around it in code. The workaround
is described on
http://www.pc-counselor.com/hx4700.htm under "For
Developers".

| Fernando,
|
| Can you enlighten me as to what you meant by "hack". Do you mean registry
| hack? If so, is there a link to some information on it? I have not seen
that
| yet.
|
| I have found a problem with the ImageList processing BMP files but OK
using
| ICO files. Can I assume you are not talking about this situation?
