dencorso Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Well, the issue reported on Graphics Bug in Windows 7 after installing August 2017 Security Updates, and also by Woody, rather unsurprisingly, also occurs on XP SP3... It only affects those using more than one monitor, and req monitors to be setup in such a way that certain parts of the screen have negative screen positions. For example a secondary monitor setup to the left of the main monitor, or with a higher top border than the main monitor, or both (which is the case of one of my machines). Then the secondary monitor starts acting up. Solution? None, yet, for XP. Workaround: uninstall KB4035055. By doing that the latest win32k.sys (v. 5.1.2600.7312) will be replaced by v. 5.1.2600.7297 (from KB4025877). This issue only happens in the conditions described, everybody using a single monitor, and people using more than one monitor in unaffected spatial arrangementes may safely ignore it and keep the latest win32k,sys!

pangoomis Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 The amount of times win32k.sys has been updated in XP probably is now in the thousands...you'll be seeing that file in your dreams if you ever worked with XP updates for a long time.

dencorso Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 This issue has been fixed by this month's new win32k.sys v. 5.1.2600.7334 (from KB4039384).

Make that +1, because we have yet one more, as I said above 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
