  • Exit Windows.
  • Type cd\Windows (hit enter).
  • Type Edit QTW.INI (hit enter).
  • Now you want to save the file under a new name. Click File, then Save As. Type QTW.OLD as the new file name. Click OK.
  • Click File, then New. This will give you an untitled page.
  • Type the following two lines.

    [Video]
    Optimize=Driver

  • The word driver can also be changed to BMP, Hardware, RAW, and DIB. If Driver does not work, try another setting.
  • Save the file by clicking File, then Save As. Type QTW.INI as the file name. It should ask you if you want to replace the existing file. Click Yes.
  • Exit by clicking File then Exit. Restart Windows.
