Please someone help me. I just downloaded Vista(Upgrade) and now my screen
jumps like mad! It is like there is a power surge and my screen is trying to
shut off then comes back on at just the last minute. Please help. Hubby

==========================
Which OS did you upgrade from?

Which version of Vista did you install?

Maybe you need a Vista compatible Video Driver?

Vista will need the latest drivers for the hardware on the system. Your
problem is likely the video driver for the installed video card. Check with
the manufacturer of the card for updated drivers.

The first thing you need to do is go to the website of the video card you
have and download and install the latest drivers for your video card and
version of Vista (x86 or X64)
