Savegame Screenshots in Windowed Mode are pixalation/static

[DimLink]

I reinstalled FO3:GOTY a few days ago and have gradually been layering on my mods to make sure they all still work, using FOMM and FO3Edit/MasterUpdate. I added the last of the mods today and did a test save; the screen froze for half a second, then went black, then came back and an ATI message box popped up saying, approximately, that my video card had become unresponsive and so was reset - I had the option of sending my info to ATI or not. I was working in Windowed mode, the game still saved, and I could still load the saved game, but the screenshot for the game, rather than being the picture of my HUD, was composed entirely of green and pink pixalation/static (there was game image in the screenshot, just the static). So I tried the game in full screen mode and saved a new game; the screenshot was as it should be, and there was no frreeze/black screen process. Then, whilst still in full screen mode, I loaded one of the saves that I had made in windowed mode (which had a static screen) and was able to play it and save over it as normal - doing so updated the savegame screenshot to the picture it should have been.

 

This isn't a functionality issue as my game still works fine in both windowed and full screen modes. I was just initially alarmed by the video card reset message and found the whole thing odd. So I wanted to see if there was a deeper issue, or if anyone has had the issue, and if I need to take any corrective measures.

 

My Video card is an ATI Radeon HD 5450
