Tom, Paul, Rolf,
My ListDensityPlot went wrong with any simple array. It had nothing to
do with a mesh being too fine or so.
Reducing the number of colors from 24 bit to 16 bit as suggested by Tom
below did solve the problem.
For some reason ListDensityPlot has problems with 24 bit colors on
some/all(?) systems.
Thanks for your help,
Maarten

Maarten,
I get this error on my Windows 95 machine only with 24-bit ("true")
color. I avoid it by reducing my color to 16-bit.
Hope this helps.
Tom
