I'm running Windows XP Professional SP2 on a Dell Inspiron 5160. I have a
NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 video card.

Every once in a while when I log in the screen is all blurry. It's like
there are many vertical lines through the screen. If I lower the screen
resolution it clears up. Each time I run into this problem I lower the
resolution then put it back up and all works again.

This does not usually happen often but today several times in a row when I
logged in it did it.

Any ideas?
