Greetings Henry,
Did you also update your video drivers recently (from WindowsUpdate)? If so, what you're
seeing is a bug within those drivers, to correct this, you just need to "roll back" the
drivers you currently have installed. To do so, click Start, then Run, type "devmgmt.msc",
click OK, then right-click your video card, choose Properties, then Driver tab, and choose
Roll Back Driver to go back to the previous version.
If this option isn't available, use these:
