It's more than likely your video card's drivers. Although up-to-date, ATI is being extremely lazy with their Vista drivers. They make drivers that are Vista-usuable, but not Vista-compatible. In other words, they took their old XP drivers and made them run on Vista without fixing any bugs that arose due to some OS changes. I experience this issue too with my ATI Radeon X1300 PCI Edition under Vista all the time, but under XP it's fine. Once again, to clear up any issues people have with Vista, it's not Vista that's the problem. It's the lazy companies that make drivers for it that refuse to take their time to make quality products that run correctly.
