Loaded V4.25 on a new computer with Win 7 64 bit. The computer has an unusually large monitor--2048x1152 resolution. If there is an image in the Irfanview window or in an Irfanview pop-up window (eg, video plug-in), everything is normal. However, an empty Irfanview window causes the entire screen to dim when the window exceeds roughly half of the screen pixels. The screen brightness is normal with an empty Irfanview window up to about half of the screen "real estate", then the entire screen dims in proportion to the Irfanview window size as that window is made larger. By full screen window size, the monitor is dark and nothing is visible. As the Irfanview window is made smaller, the entire screen brightens again until it reaches normal brightness when the window is down to about half of the screen size. The effect is a function of total pixels in the window, regardless of window shape. This is the only software on the computer that exhibits this effect, so I'm assuming it is software related.
ps - I just registered on this forum because it is the first time I've encountered a bug in Irfanview, so the profile shows me as an IV Newbie. However, I've been a fan and registered user for many years. Irfanview is one of the first programs I load on any new computer.
