I seem to be having trouble using the CreateImage command to create images wider than 4096; any larger than this and the program fails to utilise the image properly.

Anybody had a similar problem or know of a workaround?

I'm using a (fairly modern) Radeon 9250 - that thread seems to imply that it's a problem with much older cards.

I don't think a radeon 9250 is newish, and will probably suffer from that problem.

So basically, creating an image greater than 4096 in size is impossible on a 2 year old 256Mb card?

Hmmm...

Ok, so I changed over to the "Omega" graphics drivers, which seemed to fix the problem...

...once. On subsequent bulds, it's back to its usual self, which is highly confusing.
