This does appear to be a bug in the gtk library we are using (other people have reported it with different programs).

It may be caused by your screensaver or power saving options. Minimizing gnubg when you leave it may help as well.

I guess this may be a bug in the GTK libraries that GNU Backgammon uses. This means that it really isn't a bug in our program, but a bug in a library that our program uses. When we discover bugs like this, we either wait for a GTK update, or try to find a way to work around it. I'm not sure what we'll do with this?

Thanks for the report anyway,

This has occurred with several prior installations as well. If i leave GNU BG alone, but running on the desktop for a period of time (1 hr or so), I get a DOS window (is it still called this in XP?) containing the following error message repeating many times: "(gnubg.exe:2084): Gdk-WARNING **: gdkdrawable-win32.c:blit_from_pixmap:798: BitB
lt failed: The handle is invalid.".

When I close the DOS window, it terminates GNU BG. If you leave it open, GNU BG appears to operate normally.

I suspect i don't some component installed. Any ideas?
