hi there.....:)
just wondering if other peeps have found that when taking pics of the earth that there is a line running from the med to the atlantic right thru the sahara desert....??
i have found this on a couple of occasions..the latest one taken this morning not more than an hour since and it is very distinct..:)
also there is a straight black line down the middle of the sun...

This sounds to me like a buggy graphics driver.

You should download and install the latest version of the driver from the Web site of the manufacturer of your graphics hardware.

Most (but not all) plugin cards use chips made either by Nvidia or ATI. The drivers for graphics chips embedded on the computer motherboard usually have to be downloaded from the site of the manufacturer of the computer.
