[comp.windows.ms] 1024x768 Backround pics

Has anyone discovered that Windows desktop backround freeks out when you
throw a 1024x768x16 BMP picture picture on it?  The top of the picture
contains segments of the Windows Intro screen with streaks through it.
I found a great backround screen but it won't work.  It's not the Genoa
driver or any resident programs.  The picture loads into Paint Brush fine,
but if you save it from Paint Brush at the same 1024x768 resolution, windows
will give you the unrecoverable error message!  I hope MS will fix that!

Does anyone know when the bug fix version of Windows will be out?
