On a Dell laptop running Windows XP Pro, when a user boots into WinXP,
s/he experineces a blanking of the LCD monitor for nearly half a second
or so. That blink, I suspect, is being caused by the nVidia driver but I
am not sure. Also, sometimes, the icons in the task bar (the ones right
beside the Start button) get random image icons but once I hide unhide
that taskbar the icons reappear with correct images. Whats going on
here? Where do I start to fix this blinking and wrong images for icons
problem?

Thanks,

Use msconfig and uncheck the Nvidia desktop applet and the other Nvidia
helper applications and see if that helps.
