turn off antiailiasing in your display settings

have you tried 16 bit color mode?

the way LetterRip describes seems to be used only in solid draw mode with "limit selection to visible" turned on when you are in wireframe draw mode or selecting objects another method is used which doesn't depend on the graphics card.... Probably looping through edges or similar [with optimizations...

1) 32Mb graphics card?!

2) that's an ati graphics card right?

either you are wrong, you found a bug in 2.41, or the Mesh api is different from NMesh in that respect uv coordinates from face select mode are on the face itself... this is so that the verticies [the positions] don't have to be duplicated for each uv coordinate the vertex may have [if the vertex is...

vertex uvs = sticky coordinates

... are you using sticky coordinates, or are you trying to uv map in face select mode?

I belive ageia's physics engine [novodex?] is the only one that will get any benefit from that card

the texture bake script should set up enough that you need to render [f12] then save [f3]

the type you save as is specified in the render buttons, png is a good choice [jpeg is not]

turn off antialiasing [or set it to "application prefrence"] in the display settings [in the windows control panel]

nope

have you tried turning off the cursor shadow? [and running in 16 bit color] actually, that looks a lot like the errors you could get with antialiasing on... dunno the radeon 7000 is OLD... I'm surprized you're getting both those cards to work together as it is. [isn't the x550 a dual head card? why ...

it's on the subsurf modifier, it looks like the "edit mode" icon
