While doing any activities in windows for some reason my
screen flashes black for a second, as if the monitor were
changing display settings, and then comes back on.
Sometimes it locks up a few seconds prior to doing so. It
only occurs when doing things in windows, ie. Internet
explorer browsing, checking mail via Outlook express or
going through files/folders. It seems to happen at least
once per page, sometimes happens while scrolling up and
down the page. I dont have this problem while playing
games. Games run just fine. I believe it could be a
problem with windows settings. I've tried updating my
Nvidia GF 4 ti 4600 drivers, but the problem persists.
I've tried reinstalling DirectX but nothing seems to work.
If I can't get any help on here I'll try reinstalling
Windows XP Home and go from there. Hopefully I wont have
to go that far, but it's getting really annoying.

Just an Update. I switched to the Windows classic theme
and havent had the problem since. So it has something to
do with the Windows XP theme. Any ideas? If not i can live
with the windows classic.
