I had to shut my computer down for a couple of days (went away). (Note that
this is a pretty old desktop computer but although slow, works great. Windows
XP home/2002 w/service pack 2)
When I came back, I re-booted and a pop up keeps coming up (blue outline,
grey inside) that says: Processing Auto Configuration... then it disappears.
There/gone-- there/gone. Screen kind of "jiggles" a little each time it pops
up.
Making me crazy. Mouse pointer goes behind it. I called my computer tech
support. They said I need to reinstall operating system/drivers etc
(therefore losing everything on hard drive unless I go out and get a external
hd to back all up).
I really didn't understand what she tried to explain was the reason for this
pop up. I actually thought it might be a virus...although my computer does
an automatic update and virus scan regularly (just done and said was good).

Can someone help get this OFF my screen??
Thanks,
Lettesgo
 
It's caused by your monitor, consult the monitor manual.
