For some reason, whenever I try to open the display
window to change the screen resolution, screen saver,
etc. the window stays open for only a second or two then
automatically closes. This happens no matter how I try
to change it, the window closes before I even get to do
anything. Any suggestions would be helpfull and
appreciated.
