As andicirk once said (pretty much): your Windows is probably dying. The simplest solution would be for you to reinstall Windows entirely.

Do you have the latest drivers for you video card?  http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_180.48_whql.html
No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras

Yes.

And I'd rather dissect my own, still living dog, Lobo.

I think I've had it with your attitude.  We try to help and every idea is met with nothing but criticism.

The white boxes are a side-effect of running in D3D. It's crap like that that made us abandon D3D support in the first place. D3D builds are basically provided as a last ditch solution. If they work, great. If not, then that's unfortunate for you but D3D won't be getting fixed any time soon (if ever) since pretty much everyone has moved over to OpenGL (which appears to be borked for you).
Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.
