Suggestions :

1. Go to your computer manufacturer website, check if you need you graphic card driver undated.

2. Do a system restore. Pick a date when you did NOT have this problem as your restore point.

Start button > search box, type system restore >press Enter key > uac prompt > click Choose a different restore point > Next > select the date as your restore point, click it > Next > Finish
Sit back and wait. The machine will re-start when it is done.
