When I use DirectDraw DDSCL_NORMAL, and try to just blit something on the screen, then I do something in my Program like using the menu, the screen gets black again! [edited by - pipo declown on June 26, 2002 3:38:32 PM]

what other arguments are you using?

is it possible that by clicking the menu he is loosing the device?
