'm using Windows XP with a pretty old Intel video adapter (82945G). It supports OpenGL 1.1.
There is a simple OpenGL application. It processes WM_PAINT message and draws the scene.
The problem is that when I press the Start button the window gets completely erased. Some rubbish appears there. The same situation is happening when I hover cursor on close button and a tooltip appears.
I have checked that the application receives no messages during that. Something makes me think that windows just repaints desktop and erases my window. How could I avoid that?
Run the application. Make sure that window is on the desktop. Resize it a bit. the press start button or hover cursor over close button and waint until tooltip appear.
Here is a source code:

I found that when i put the window upon another window which is repainted constantly my window is got repainted also.
