hi, sorry i think i have small prob with my psu, gonna check it out, losing power so it seems lol, and my hardware is deffy fine lol, i run a business selling hardware and software + repairs :-P

Code:
CPU: 1.86GHz Core 2 Duo
Mem: 4GB DDR2 667
GFX: BFG 7950GT 512MB
O/S: Windows XP Pro

Monitor: 24" LCD 5ms Response (1920x1200 res)
im gonna go check out my psu, will post back if all solved, thanks again for tips and help, at least now app works perfect

*edit* 1 other thing is, atm i use a single png to create texture for buttons etc, however i see many places have a dds file with 3-4 images in to create the somewhat sprite texture or to use the same image for several parts of a quad etc, is there any tutorial on doing this? i cant seem to find one, thanks again
