New message opening out of view

[Guest]

Recently, when I click on Reply, etc. or start a new message, the window opens up "behind" the OL window. Every time! Formerly the message window would open "on top" of the OL window. This behavior has become incredily annoying and I sure would like to fix it. Any ideas?

Unless a program is actually forcing to take focus; update (recommended) or
rollback (in case you are running the latest version) your videocard driver

Nope, it's towards you. How silly it might seem focus issues like new
windows hiding under existing is most often caused by a videocard driver
issue.

I don't understand this response. It looks like a response to another

My apologies. Now that I think on it, I can see where that might be the culprit. I'll try upgrading the video card driver and let you know the results.

Thanks,

By George, or should I say Roady, you're a genius. That fixed it!!! Thanks very much. It would have never occured to me that the problem was caused by out of date video drivers.

Again, Thanks.
