[QUOTE="Paranoid Delusion, post: 469707, member: 13176"] That sound like the video driver, did windows install it, or did you install manually. A couple of things I found running Vista Ultimate, unless I used the full admin account, kept finding drivers would get uninstalled\corrupted :S, these have been fine since switching account, believe me I have tried lots of times to get this to work with a "normal" user admin account" and within a few days had problems return, of course this could just be my hardware, and it was mainly drivers relating to Creative\Nvidia audio\Video which were the culprits.
