Require suggestions...

On a WinXP system (not installed SP2 yet)
I have a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX440 Display card on a SlimView 727 Packard
Bell Monitor. It is set at 1280x1024 (Highest 32bit)setting. Never had
problems until...


Some three months ago kids used a Shrek demo cd
(contents,screensavers,wallpapers etc).

After which the PC kept breifly hanging and then switching to 640x480
(Lowest 4bit) setting.

My regret is that I did not do a System Restore closer to the date of
the problem originating.

I have since uninstalled the driver and then re-installed it from Nvidia
website.

However EVERY morning I switch the PC on it crashes about 2 minutes
after it loads (boots) up - The Monitor flickers then switches to a
blank screen.

After re-booting it works perfectly all day even if I breifly power
off/on.
Any suggestions

Many Thanks

Experience is something you don't get until just after you
need it.

My only suggestion is that you correctly identify your problem in the
message header. This has very little to do with your MONITOR; more
than likely it has to do with your VIDEO CARD. Two different and very
separate sets of solutions.
