This LOOKS like a bug in Windows XP which creates .BMP files via DirectX
with an incorrect bitmap header size (54 vice 40). Changing the 54 to 40
makes the file readable again. Most utilities seem to ignore this but
Windows itself won't be able to 'read' it as a .BMP file.
(using XP SP2 and DirectX 9.0c ... I haven't tried this on Vista yet)
