Annoying "Flicker" Problem written 4/10/08 by Island Momma

Is there anyone out there with a solution to this issue. I have a Tohsiba
purchased 1 year ago (running Vista), and had this isue, but being a computer
novice, always assumed it was something I was doing. However, just bought my
spouse a new Acer (again, running Vista) and having the same issue on that
one, so I decided to do some research. It has to be a Vista issue since it is
occurring on 3 different computers being used by 3 different people. I could
not find a response to Island Momma's request for help.
Pleeeeease, if someone out there has a solution for this, can you post and
help us out.
