Windows Vista Flashing...

Hello Everyone,

I have a problem with my new computer. If I leave my computer on for about
30 minutes, when I return, everything is flashing (toolbar or any other
running program). It's like the whole Operating System is frozen. I have to
restart the computer in order to get everything back to normal. Does anyone
know how to solve this problem because it's driving me crazy.

Thanks
Pierre

PS: I am running windows vista, and it's a brand new computer (one week
old).

Think its a hardware glitch, happened to me last night whilst using
WMP11 to play a video and switching the Monitor, Keyboard and mouse
back to an XP machine via a KVM switch (ie 2 x Pooters wired via a box
that allows you to switch the same Keyboard, Mouse and Video to one or
the other at will)

Has not happened since but I did have a loose Video monitor connection
on the KVM switch which may have been the problem. Check your
connectors first.
