Thanks Wim, That seems to have fixed the issue. I tried firefox and photoshop and haven't seen a screen fliker or go blank yet. Strange that a more resource intensive theme would actually fix the issue. I had adjusted my system for best performance which as we know, makes it look more like windows 2000 since all the visual affects are turned off.

That's something I always do first thing is performance tweak my system because I don't care for the visual affects.

I'll be sure to check for updates so I can return to my dull boring but fast desktop in the future. But to be fair I have to consider that with a good graphics card the visual affects don't really slow down my system now like they used to on older PC's with onboard video.

Thanks again
