Im reading Andre Lamoths "Tricks of The Windows Gaming Guru" or somthin along those lines. And i decided to test my new found skill WHOA!!! Im gonna make a pixel float across the screen!! i am so proud of myself (I hope u picked up the sarcasm) Well I got every working and the pixels move? But the preformance is really bad, when i try to move the mouse , it dosnt respond automaticly, its really "laggy" Oh and bye the way this is in direct x? im pretty sure its not that my computer can handle a few pixels being drawn to the screen, cause earlier in a demo, i created 1000 random pixels in random locations?? Got any idea why the performance is so bad? thanks Ryan Lahay

Laggy? Post the drawing code, because a few pixels shouldn''t lag anything unless you''re doing something wrong or unnecessary.
