I've been able to isolate the problem.

It happens with that video card (as listed in the Device Manager in 
Windows):

Intel(R) 82815 Graphics Controller


(and perhaps all other Intel(R) 82xxx).

When one uses 24 bit (True Colour) mode.


Switching to 16 bit seems to be a good workaround for this problem.

I know it's not perfect, but I already pulled too many hair out of my 
head :)
