For anyone using an nVidia graphics card, beware a problem with its latest Desktop Manager.
I just installed the latest Detonator FX drivers for my TNT2 card onto my 98SE system, and they include this Manager. I wanted to use the "Collapse to title bar" feature, which collapses an open window into its own title bar to reveal the window behind.
Problem, it attaches the nVidia title bar daemon to every open application window, including LnS. This causes LnS to crash and force a firewall shut down. Only way I have found to stop it is disable the nVidia Desktop Manager completely and lose its benefits.
