    Hello, I believe the problem started since upgrading to I.E.7 . Shortly after booting my pc and opening I.E.7 my monitor goes to 'black' for approx 1 sec.

    Any ideas to fix would be appreciated. Merry Christmas.

    Some possibilities;

    1. Learn to like the 1 second delay

    2. Uninstall IE 7 and try installing it again (maybe Safe Mode this time).

    3. Use XP System Restore to go back to a time before you installed IE7. Then try installing it again, if you're a hard nose.

    4. Dump IE7 and wait until they get the bugs worked out.

    I did # 4. It fouled my system to such a point that I decided to roll back to IE6 and wait out in the bushes until IE7 got worked out better.

    I'm sorry I can't offer better. Merry Christmas!
