Ever since i installed the KB824141 security update I've
been having problems running Gens in fullscreen, as the
video is all messed up. Is there any way to fix this??
 
Hi SMTP,

Have you tried reinstalling Gens Emulator? It might seem
too painfully obvious to do any good, however it's well
worth the effort, especially if it solves the problem. :-)

Yea I've tried that, yet it still happens. I've been
looking around the internet and people seem to think its
a problem with the KB824141 Update.

I can confirm that it is definetely an issue with the KB-824141
update. I play a directX 7 game called warzone 2100, and after
installing the update I had problems as well. When I enter the game
the screen flickers between the desktop and the game itself, and if I
press any game menu items, the game minimize to desktop. When I
uninstalled the update everything was ok again. My friend had the same
problem with the game and the update, and we have completely different
hardware. I installed the update again, and sure enough the problem
was back. I have no idea how we can get this through to Microsoft, its
a maze of autoreplying email bots and crap.
